Overview

It started like a whisper. Soft and unnoticed...until it was the loudest thing in her life. Back home from college for the summer, Josie finds herself unexpectedly reconnecting with Sammie, a girl she used to babysit. But Sammie isn't the little kid Josie remembers---she's grown into someone thoughtful, confident, and quietly magnetic. As the two rekindle a bond rooted in shared memories and easy laughter, Josie starts to question the walls she's built around herself.

Between long walks, late-night conversations, and spontaneous sleepovers, something begins to grow---something tender, meaningful... maybe even more than friendship. But Josie, lost in her own head and emotional caution, doesn't fully see what's blooming until much later. Maybe too late.

Or maybe not.

Torn between the comfort of solitude and the vulnerability of connection, Josie must confront old tensions with her mother, unresolved wounds from her past, and the quiet ache of what might have been-or might still be.
