"Ellie Beltrami and Cristiano Conte have known each other their entire lives. Both families hail from Chiavari, a small city on the Italian Riviera. Their parents are friends. Their grandparents are friends. They were friends. And for one brief moment fourteen summers ago, they were almost more than that. After years apart, Ellie and Cris are headed back to Chiavari, as generations of Beltramis and Contes gather to celebrate the unlikely second marriage between her grandmother and his grandfather. Ellie arrives in Italy mere hours after her career as the host of a multimedia sports talk show has imploded thanks to a hot mic incident. Without work to distract her, she spends her free time re-examining her early years and perceived flaws in light of a recent autism diagnosis. Cris, a newly retired elite swimmer, also arrives adrift after being accused of using a banned substance. His grandfather, father, and brothers have all made lifelong careers in sports, but he is searching for an off-ramp from athletics to something that gives him real meaning. Reunited in a place where summer dreams come true, Cris and Ellie make a deal: an exclusive interview with Cris to fix her career, and an appearance on Ellie's show to clear his name, letting him retire in peace. Soon they're picking up where their teen romance left off, but if this second chance can last, they'll need to finally confront what drove them apart all those summers ago. Can your greatest regret become your greatest romance?"-- Provided by publisher.
