~ Synopsis ~
Reeling from the divorce, Summer derails her own future by
breaking up with her parent-approved boyfriend and giving up her lifelong plans
for a big-city career. She moves back home, business degree in hand. Dad needs
her to fill the gaps her mother left behind; Summer needs to find who she is
outside of the cookie-cutter life that failed so miserably for her parents.
Ford O’Neal’s future involves one person: himself. He
doesn’t have a permanent address and he definitely doesn’t commit. To a place
or a person. Raised by hippies, he plans just far enough ahead to secure his
next stop, this one landing him at a work-study program at Heritage Plantation
where he can grow his own herbal and medicinal creations.
Summer is gorgeous and smart and fun to be with, the perfect
way to pass five months. It won’t be love—Ford’s got too many things to
accomplish, too many places to go, before he settles down. Yet Summer pulls him
in, challenging him to rethink his own philosophy.When 22-year-old Summer Stafford’s parents split halfway
through her senior year at college, Summer’s world is rocked. Everything she
thought she knew—heck, everything she thought she wanted for her own life—feels
like a lie. The truth is love is a risk. And the true kind, the kind that
lasts, might even be a fairy tale.
