Can the space between two broken hearts be crossed in a single summer?
It is June 1990, and twenty-one-year-old Bobbie Lamont has just graduated at the top of her class from Tulane University. But instead of celebrating her bright future as a rising editor, her world is completely shattered. Her older, married English professor-the man she gave her heart to-has brutally broken off their affair to stay with his wife.
Struggling with deep depression and feeling adrift, Bobbie flees to Birmingham, Alabama, to seek refuge with her Aunt Gina. She arrives expecting nothing but a quiet place to hide from the world.
A Connection That Changes Everything
Then, just days before the Fourth of July, she meets Miller Hoffman at a community swimming pool. Miller is seventeen, nervous, and completely transparent with his feelings. He is a young man who doesn't play games, standing in stark contrast to the people who let Bobbie down in the past.
Despite their different life stages and deeply buried traumas, a profound bond forms between them. Miller's sharp intelligence and raw vulnerability challenge Bobbie's cynicism, offering her a renewed sense of perspective and hope.
