The Summer I Turned Pretty

One summer can change everything; hearts, friendships, and the way you see yourself.

Every summer, Belly returns to Cousins Beach, a place woven with laughter, salt air, and the warmth of family friends who feel like something more. But this year is different. The summer sun doesn’t just tan her skin; it brings a shift she can’t ignore. Suddenly, the boys she’s known all her life "Conrad and Jeremiah" see her with new eyes, and the easy rhythm of childhood gives way to the ache and thrill of first love.

As the ocean tides rise and fall, so too do the emotions that ripple through the beach house. Belly finds herself pulled between the intensity of Conrad’s quiet, brooding soul and Jeremiah’s open, playful warmth, all while navigating her own journey from girlhood into something more fragile, more complicated, and more real. Each moment of laughter, jealousy, and longing is tinged with the knowledge that nothing can ever return to the way it once was.

At its heart, The Summer I Turned Pretty is not only about romance, but about growing up, about the way seasons change, how innocence slips away, and how love, once awakened, reshapes everything it touches. It is tender, nostalgic, and bittersweet, capturing the feeling of a summer that lingers forever in memory.
