Olivia Schwartz has a plan. Itâs even color-coded.
And the plan is this: a perfect SAT score, a prestigious college, and a straight path towards her dream of becoming a doctor.
The last thing she wants to doâthe summer before her senior year of high school, no lessâis go on a cruise. Especially with her parents, younger brothers, and all the unspoken things between them since her older brotherâs death so many years ago.
Then Olivia meets Sebastian. Heâs everything sheâs not: charming, exciting, willing to take risks and run with them. For the first time, Olivia feels like she can have fun...
But thereâs a lot bubbling up under the surface on this cruise, and when past secrets begin to come to light, Olivia must face all the truths that sheâs ignored for so long: about herself, Sebastian, her brother, the past she thought she understood, and the future sheâs always planned.
