Ellis has high expectations for her senior year, but moving from Manhattan to Bramble Falls, Connecticut, isn't one of them. Yet, following her parents' separation, that's exactly where she and her mother are headed.
Bramble Falls may be a charming town, but it's also full of distractions. Like Cooper Barnett, the local barista and Ellis's former best friend—and first kiss—who's gotten even more handsome but wants nothing to do with Ellis. Then there's the Autumn Festival, a month-long tourist attraction run by Ellis's aunt, celebrating autumn in all its forms. The festival sounds like a lot of fun, but Ellis doesn't have time to participate in her aunt's preparations. Dragged to every event, she can't help but run into Cooper, the one person she doesn't want to see.
But the more time passes, the harder it becomes for her to pretend she isn't falling under the spell of this city and its inhabitants. With her return to Manhattan constantly postponed, Ellis is forced to reflect on what she truly wants for her future... and what that means for her present.
