Ivy has grown up as part of a tight-knit group of friends and family, always considered a "cousin" by Christine's children, and having a close bond with Gracie, who is like a sister to her. However, it's Gabriel, Christine's son, who has captured her heart.
This summer is different. It's full of firsts: Ivy's mother isn't joining them, Christine has remarried Charles, and they're traveling together with a new set of people-including Charles's children.
As the summer progresses, Ivy's feelings for Gabriel intensify, but she's unsure if he feels the same. Tension builds between them as Ivy tries to navigate her feelings, which are complicated by her history with Gabriel and her own fears of rejection.

"the way back to us"
They met as kids-classmates until the fourth grade-where he had a quiet crush on her before she transferred schools. Years later, fate brought them back together in high school. What started as friendship quickly turned into something deeper, and for four years, they were inseparable. They had plans, dreams, and a love that felt unshakable. Until the day she broke up with him and disappeared from his life without a single explanation. Years passed, but the unanswered questions never left him. Neither did the feelings. He tried to move on, to forget, but no one ever came close to being what she was to him. And just when he thought he'd finally buried the past, she came back-this time, as his fiancée in a marriage neither of them chose. She tells herself it's just duty. He tells himself he's over it. But the past lingers between them, unspoken and unresolved. The tension simmers, the familiarity remains, and despite everything, so does the pull between them. He fell first. And even after all these years, he never truly stopped. She thought walking away once was hard-she never imagined falling again would be even harder.
