Overview

A Friends-to-Lovers Small-Town and City Romance. One summer, one big decision, and a friendship that finally admits it was never just platonic. When the founder of a tiny coastal storytelling festival is offered a chance to take her idea to a big-city stage, she risks not only her comfort but the best friend who has quietly become the love of her life. Sienna has spent years pouring her heart into a tiny coastal town that knows her entirely too well. By day she is the quietly relentless force behind Seacliff's Night Stories Festival, coaxing strangers to pin their most important memories to a boardwalk wall. By night she is the girl who stayed behind, keeping an eye on her widowed mother, holding her community together and pretending she does not sometimes feel too big for the life she has built. The one constant through it all is Logan, her best friend since high school, the science teacher who chose to stay on purpose rather than out of fear. Together, they have made Seacliff feel like the safest place in the world. When a city storytelling agency spots the festival online and offers Sienna a job bringing Night Stories to transit hubs and urban neighbourhoods, the decision she has avoided for years finally lands in her lap. Taking the job means leaving her mother, her festival and the boardwalk that raised her. Staying means quietly shrinking herself to fit everyone else's expectations. Saying yes forces her to confront the one line she has never crossed: the one between ""just friends"" and something more with the man who knows every version of her. Because somewhere between late-night planning sessions, boardwalk café shifts and that one unforgettable summer storm, friendship stopped being an accurate word for what lives between them. As Seacliff prepares for the festival's biggest year yet, Sienna and Logan must decide if they are willing to risk the easy story they have always told about themselves. Under string lights and hand-written confession cards, they start having the harder conversations they have both avoided. She is terrified of becoming the girl who left. He is terrified of becoming the man who held her back. Together, they carve out a different path, one that asks if it is possible to love more than one home, more than one version of your life, without betraying any of them. From boardwalk docks to city train platforms, The Summer Our Friendship Crossed the Line follows Sienna through a season of messy, beautiful decisions. It is a romance about learning that staying and leaving are not moral opposites, that ambition and loyalty can live in the same body, and that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stop letting fear draw your boundaries. For readers who love friends-to-lovers stories with emotional depth, small-town charm, a touch of big-city energy and closed-door intimacy, this novel delivers a complete, hopeful ending without shortcuts or cliffhangers.
