She spent her life trying to stay out of the way. He spent years quietly watching her.
High school junior Carrie Miller has always been the invisible one in her loud, chaotic household-the quiet, straight-A student who keeps her head down, focuses on advanced placement classes, and plans her path to college.
Dave is twenty, hardworking, and grounded. Balancing shifts as a school bus driver and janitor while taking night classes in mechanical engineering, he is also her older brother's lifelong best friend and a permanent fixture at the Miller family table.
What begins as subtle glances in a school bus rearview mirror and quiet conversations on the porch quickly deepens into an intense, undeniable connection. But in a small town where everyone knows your history, and where family loyalty is everything, being together means walking a razor-thin tightrope.
Navigating hidden meetings, library alibis, and carefully guarded promises, Carrie and Dave build a quiet, fiercely protective world of their own. But as the pressures of senior year, family expectations, and big-city dreams draw closer, they must decide how long they can keep their love in the dark-and what it will cost to bring it into the light.
Atmospheric, emotional, and deeply intimate, The Weight of Us is a captivating coming-of-age story about first love, ambition, and the heavy choices that shape our futures
