Summer of '94

She isn't running away. She's running toward truth.

One question changes everything: What do you want to be after graduation?

For Charlotte, the answer feels impossible. How can she imagine that when she doesn't really know who she is-or who her father is? Her whole life, her mother's silence about him has left her with an ache she can't name. But when uncertainty starts to define her, Charlotte makes a bold choice. With the support of her fearless, faithful best friend, she boards a plane to California, chasing a man who might hold the truth she's been denied and the clarity she desperately needs.

But answers don't always come the way we expect.

Set between small-town restlessness and the warm streets of a big city, this emotionally charged coming-of-self novel explores identity, inherited silence, and the moment you realize you have permission to become yourself.

Some journeys change your direction. Others turn you around to keep you where you are supposed to be.
