The Tide of You

Evelyn never expects one beach trip with her closest friends to unravel her so completely.What begins as a week of salty air, late-night laughter, bonfires, and sun-soaked freedom slowly becomes something more the moment she meets Jesse-a complicated, impossible-to-ignore boy who sees through every wall she's ever built.Around him, Evelyn begins to change. The shy girl who always held herself back starts becoming someone bolder, freer, and unafraid to want more. She laughs louder, finds herself chasing moments instead of hiding from them, and discovers parts of herself she didn't know were waiting beneath the surface.But somewhere between crashing waves, stolen glances, and nights that feel endless, she realizes that opening your heart can alter you in ways you never see coming.Set against warm ocean tides and the bittersweet ache of growing up, this emotional coming-of-age romance is about first love, friendship, heartbreak, and the versions of ourselves we discover during the summers that shape us forever.
