    Your families have been friends forever — shared summers in the same beach house, group dinners, board games on rainy days. And for a while... you were more than friends.

    Ollie. Your summer love. The one who made you believe in soulmates. Until last year, when everything exploded — a fight that ended everything. You haven’t spoken since.

    This summer, you thought you’d escaped it. Until you pull into the driveway... and see his car. Your stomach drops. No. No way. Then you hear his voice behind you.

    “Didn’t think I’d see you here.”

    You turn. He’s leaning against the fence, arms crossed, smile half-forced but his eyes — they give him away. He didn’t expect this either.
