Release Date: February 16, 2025

It was the best summer of her life, until the night that changed everything…

LC Hart never thought being at Blackbird would make her life so complicated. It had always been the one place that didn’t make her feel anxious—until the summer she turned eighteen.

 

Blackbird was the Hart Family’s summer home in Michigan. They had vacationed there with the Coleman Family—their best friends—even before LC was born. Being at Blackbird with the Colemans year after year had been fun and easy—aside from dealing with the not-so-nice and always pretentious next-door neighbor, Connor Murphy. But when Connor arrived this summer, he was different.

 

Hannah Coleman was LC’s best friend. She was sweet and bubbly and always up for a good time. Hannah’s older brother Gavin—with his big smile and heart-melting dimple, was the type of guy to make anyone feel butterflies in their stomach. This summer, though, it was happening more and more any time LC was near him. Was it still just friendship, or was she starting to have feelings for him?

 

LC’s summer starts out perfectly—especially with all of Gavin’s flirting. But when Connor begins to confide in LC about his past, she feels obligated to keep his secrets to protect him. As the summer goes on, LC becomes caught up in a web of friendship, love, and secrets—but is she the only one keeping secrets?
