Partying with friends and scoring a flawless tan is about all Roxie has on her list of things to make her Hampton's summer perfect.
Her parents, however, have other plans and Grandma Betty's farm is just one of them.
Just as her life is in shambles and the quaint town is suffocating her, she meets Chase.
Somewhere in the mix of bummer summer and small town doldrums, he becomes the boy she can't seem to avoid falling for. Just adding him to the picture, her stay starts to get better, even if she knows it has to end with the summer holidays.
That is until Betty drops a life-shattering bomb.
Roxie must make a choice that will change her life forever. What happens when a spoiled brat from New York learns the true meaning of love, loss, and forgiveness?
Can Chase and Roxie find a way to be together or is this just another summer romance?

Excerpt;
Ruthi Kight currently lives in her hometown of Columbia, SC, with her fiancé and five year old daughter. She has an unhealthy addiction to books, music, and chocolate, but not necessarily in that order. When her dream of being a rock star didn't work out, she focused on her other passion: writing. She is the author of Knotted Roots, a YA Coming of Age story, and is currently working on two other novels that are due out this year.
My ears were set ablaze at his
pitiful words. This was NOT the man who
had raised me. The man who had taught me
to be strong-willed and opinionated. The
one who told me to never say sorry unless I truly meant it. And even then he claimed it was a sign of
weakness. Yet, here he sat as he
wallowed in his own pity. No. I couldn’t deal with that side of him.
I ripped my hands away and jumped
to my feet as I backed away from him and his neediness. “How dare you,” I growled. “My entire life you told me not to show
weakness. Not to let someone else
control how I felt. And yet here you
are. Pathetic.” I ran away, down the long hall to my room at
the end. I slammed the door, hard enough
the framed pictures on my walls shuddered under the impact.
I rushed to my bed and threw myself
down, the tears that had threatened from the start slid down my cheeks. No heavy sobs escaped, just whimpers. I could not allow great, heaving sobs to
escape my body. I could not be weak like
my parents. If they couldn’t make a
relationship work, well that was their problem.
But I wanted nothing to do with any of it. The thought of leaving home scared me, but at
this point anything was better than being here.
I hadn’t seen my Grandma since I
was a year old. Would she even recognize
me now? Would she care?
