She’s spending the next four and half weeks traveling through Europe with her childhood best friend, Leela. Their plans include Eiffel-Tower selfies, eating cocco gelato, and making out with très hot strangers. Her plans do not include Leela’s cheating ex-boyfriend showing up on the flight to London, falling for the cheating ex-boyfriend’s très hot friend, monitoring her mother’s spiraling mental health via texts, or feeling like the rope in a friendship tug-of-war.

Sam expects the next seven weeks to be a total disaster.That is, until she meets Gavin, the camp’s sailing instructor, who turns her expectations upside down.

Sam expects the next seven weeks to be a total disaster.That is, until she meets Gavin, the camp’s sailing instructor, who turns her expectations upside down.
