Beneath the summer sun, shared secrets spark a forbidden romance I'm an adoptee who'll turn eighteen while away at camp for the summer. My goal has been to request my original birth certificate and search for my birth mom when I return home from camp. It's all I think about. Then everything changes when my camp crush, Devin Connell, comes to my rescue during a rainstorm by pulling me into his cabin-where we're completely alone. After that close encounter, what started as infatuation turns to strong feelings. Our limited but deep conversations quickly stir intense emotions within me, especially when he shares his personal journey surrounding adoption. It feels like fate has brought us together. Except I'm off-limits to Devin. He's forbidden to be interested in me. To make matters worse, he refuses to even kiss me. Why? Devin's a counselor. I'm a camper. A stupid camp rule: no involvement between the two. This means he can't touch me-at least not in front of anyone. Our relationship remains hidden from everyone, including Devin's ex, another counselor, who wants him back. Even though he's secretly mine, I want more. My plan is to ask Devin to give himself completely to me as my eighteenth birthday present.
