Eli Tanner is leaving for college at the end of summer. Wren Callahan has been in love with her best friend for a year and has no idea how to tell him.

So when the marina needs extra summer help, Wren trades her usual shifts at her mom's diner for a job coiling rope and stocking life vests alongside the boy she's known since they were seven—the boy she's spent the last year quietly, hopelessly falling for.

Ninety days. That's all the time they have left before Eli leaves for school. Ninety days to work side by side at the boathouse, to almost say it on a late-night dock, to almost say it under the fireworks, to almost, almost, almost—until one regatta, one small-town summer, and one whole lot of almost finally has to become something real.

The Summer We Almost Said It is a warm, closed-door coming-of-age romance about friendship, first love, and finding the courage to say the one true sentence before the summer runs out. Book One of the Brightwater Series.
