Vividly told and unforgettable, Summer Hours is a sweeping story charting a secret relationship, the summer it unravels, and the sparkling reunion a decade later as one woman comes to accept the choices of her youth and rediscovers love and life in the process.

Thirty-three-year-old Becc Reardon has tried hard to forget the all-consuming relationship that upended her life one summer in college. But when a mutual friend’s wedding means road-tripping up the California coast with a man from the past, she can't resist one last chance at a reunion.

Becc plots every moment of the drive, careful not to upset the distant, wary man beside her who feels like a stranger. Yet each gorgeous mile is a reminder of their memories together—the infinite nights at beach bonfires, secret mid-day movie sessions—and soon enough, the funny, adventurous person she used to know comes alive, and they both give in to the celebratory mood of the weekend.

But as they near the location of their long-ago flameout, bringing old heartbreaks into sharper focus, Becc must decide if those dazzling hours they once shared are worth fighting for before the trip ends and they’re lost forever. Set in the mid ’90s and 2008, Summer Hours is about love, female coming of age, the power of nostalgia, and what happens when you realize you haven’t become the person you’d always promised to be.
