There are no rules this cruel summer...
‘I think we should see other people...’
That one sentence unravels Samantha Parker’s perfect life. She has a loving husband, three wonderful kids, and a comfortable suburban lifestyle. But on the brink of their long-awaited empty-nest chapter, Will asks Samantha for something she never dreamed of: an open marriage.
Desperate to keep her husband happy, Samantha proposes a summer-long separation with no contact. She knows she has to use the time to find herself, but she also knows she has no interest in being with anyone but Will. She’s confident when the summer is over, they’ll get back together like this time never happened.
Then Sam gets an offer of adventure from an unlikely source: Logan Martin, a classic car restorer who happens to be Will’s best friend, asks Sam to help him drive across the country to make deliveries. Logan and Sam have never had an easy relationship. He’s prickly, aloof, and a little too handsome. As they traverse the winding roads and breathtaking backdrops of North America, her changing connection with Logan challenges everything she believed she wanted in life, love, and passion.
When her summer with Logan is up, will she go home to the familiar stability of her past...or choose the thrilling uncertainty of her future?
