Senior year was supposed to be the time of Colt's life, but when he meets Lucas Oliver, a college-aged vagabond with a mysterious past, Colt's life takes an unexpected turn.
Lucas mentors Colt and a group of eleven other senior guys, guiding them through a series of rites of passage over the course of the year. Together, they meet each Sunday night around a barrel fire in the local church parking lot to talk about life and read their journal entries aloud beneath the stars. They are challenged by the power of sacred questions, courageous acts, and vulnerable authenticity, but the question remains: can Lucas be trusted with his unorthodox ideas about God, life, and death?
Along the way, Colt's feelings for Noa-a band dork he has known for years, deepen as he falls for her bright green eyes and charming honesty.As Colt and the group of young men explore the wonders, romance, and adventures of their senior year, they are confronted with an event that challenges everything they hold true.
If you enjoyed the classic coming-of-age movie, Dead Poets Society, or the book, The Sun Is Also A Star, by Nicola Yoon, you'll also enjoy this nostalgic story about being invited into the adventure of life.
