From acclaimed and #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah Dessen comes a sweet, nuanced, and reflective coming-of-age love story.

But when a last-minute trip with her distant mom to a family vacation house upends her plans—especially after her relationship with Colin freefalls—she must live without a roadmap for the first time.
At her aunt’s diner, The Egg, Finley discovers truths about her mother’s estrangement, bonds with new friends, and falls for charming guitarist Ben, realizing how much of herself she’s been missing.
