A powerful story of loss, second chances, and first love, similar to Sarah Dessen and John Green. When Oakley Nelson loses her older brother, Lucas, to tumor, she thinks she'll never recover. Between her parents' arguing and the challenge she's struggling with with depressive disorder, she feels nothing inside but a hollow emptiness. When Mom suggests they spend a few months in California with Aunt Jo, Oakley isn't sure a change of scenery will alter anything, but she's prepared to provide it a try. In California, Oakley discovers sort of safety and liberty in Aunt Jo's beach house. Once they're settled, Mom hands her a notebook full of letters resolved to her - from Lucas. As Oakley reads one every day, she realizes how much he enjoyed her, and each letter issues her to be better and continue steadily to enjoy her life. He desires her to go on. Only if it were that simple. But then a surfer named Carson comes into her life, and Oakley is blindsided. He makes her feel again. As she allows him in, she is amazed by how much she cares for him, and that is when things get complicated. How can she show up in love and become happy when Lucas never acquired the opportunity to do those very same things? With her brother's dying words as advice, Oakley knows she must learn to listen closely and trust again. But will she have to leave days gone by behind to find happiness in the foreseeable future?
