People We Meet on Vacation

Two best friends. Ten summer trips. The last chance to fall in love.

Poppy and Alex. Alex and Poppy. They have nothing in common. She is a wild child; he wears khakis. She has an insatiable thirst for travel, and he prefers to sit at home with a book. But for some reason, ever since they drove home from college together in the same car many years ago, they became best friends. Most of the year they live far from each other - she is in New York, and he is in their small hometown, but every summer, for ten years now, they spend one glorious week of vacation together.

Until two years ago they destroyed everything. Since then they have not spoken.

Poppa has everything she could possibly want, but she's stuck in a routine. When someone asks when she was last truly happy, she knows without a doubt that it was on that ill-fated last trip with Alex. And now she decides to convince her best friend to spend another vacation together - to put everything on the table, to make sure that everything is fine. In a wonderful way, he agrees.

Now she has a week to fix everything. If only she can get around one big truth that has always been quietly standing in the middle of their seemingly ideal relationship. What can go wrong?
