About this book

Natalie's final summer in her Kentucky hometown takes a thrilling turn when she starts glimpsing alternate versions of her world—a red door instead of green, buffalo where her town should be—and a mysterious figure tells her she has three months to save someone she hasn't even met yet. Then she locks eyes with Beau under the Friday night lights, and suddenly everything makes sense, even though nothing does. As reality bends around them and Natalie realizes the stakes are impossibly high, she has to decide whether she's brave enough to risk everything—her future, her world, her very existence—for a love that might transcend all boundaries. It's an achingly beautiful exploration of first love, destiny, and the roads not taken, with the magical realism and emotional depth that will make your heart ache.
