The Summers We Left Behind by Marja Graham
No one told Emma Danes that it’s dangerous to fall in love with a place. But who could blame her when Harriettesville, North Carolina was the place that summer dreams were made of. The only thing that could make it better was Bennett Sorenson, the boy next door, who taught her what it was like to belong somewhere.

But when she learns that there are no perfect places, only the secrets that maintain an illusion of perfection, she leaves Harriettesville, those summer days, and the first boy she ever loved behind. Or at least she tries to...

Years later, during her final spring break of college, she unexpectedly finds herself pulled back to the beach. It would have been perfectly fine if Bennett wasn’t there, too. Determined to not ruin the trip for her friends she does her best to repress old feelings and forget the wounds of the past.

The one thing she didn’t count on was Bennett taking every opportunity to remind her of why she fell in love with Harriettesville, and him, in the first place.
