Summer nights and new connections

Auden has long used the night as a refuge from the changes around her. During a summer shaped by new family dynamics, she meets Eli, another insomniac, whose nighttime excursions become a point of connection. The premise brings together romance, family adjustment, and the uncertainty of moving beyond past regrets toward what comes next. Its central relationship unfolds over a season that the description frames as a threshold between what has been and what remains unknown.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in young adult romance.
  • Readers who enjoy stories involving changing family dynamics and new connections.
  • Readers drawn to summer-set stories about uncertainty and moving forward.
