It’s the summer of 1979 in a small Ohio town, and Rowan Marks is simply trying to survive the yawning gulf of time before she leaves for college. Her life is a chaotic mix of domestic stress: her older brother is sinking into substance abuse, her family is harboring deep fractures, and her male best friend, Danny, has just confessed he is in love with her. Everything shifts, however, with the arrival of Catherine, the standoffish new girl in town. Though they initially clash, an intense connection develops, and Catherine completely steals Rowan’s heart. When a family crisis brings hidden secrets crashing to light, Rowan is forced to make a definitive leap into adulthood, navigating her first queer romance and the complexities of her own identity.
