Description
by Christopher D. Wayland (Author)
A friendship tested. A summer that changes everything.
As Chip McArcher's tenth summer begins, he doesn't expect much more than long bike rides and visiting the nearby meadow. Gwendolyn - fiercely smart, fiercely independent - forges a close friendship with Chip, and suddenly the summer feels full of possibilities. But things don't stay simple for long.
Between local bullies, family challenges, and a mysterious accident that shakes the neighborhood, Chip and Gwendolyn will face decisions far bigger than they ever imagined. As misunderstandings and silence threaten their growing friendship, both will have to decide: what does it mean to be brave? To take responsibility? To forgive?
