1976 was a simpler time . . .
Cole doesn’t know if he’s in love, he’s never been in love before. What he does know is these feelings for Tiffany are new, and they’re not going away. The burning in his gut, the flutter in his heart, the chill every time he sees her. If these are the first sparks of love, Cole needs to find out, and he needs to find out soon.
Tiffany and Cole are as close as two friends can be without sharing blood, and with Tanner faithfully by their side, the pair makes three. Best friends since birth, they grew up in small-town America sharing skinned knees, peanut butter sandwiches, and first kisses.
But as they prepare to celebrate America’s 200th birthday during the summer of their sophomore year, they find storm clouds on the horizon. The carefree days of childhood will fall away as a tragedy exposes family secrets, and outside forces will threaten to tear the friends apart. They will have to rely on one another as their community tells them who to be, and how to live. And hard lessons about love, responsibility, and family will have to be navigated if they hope to save their Bicentennial Summer.
