The Sunflower Experience - Paperback

Ryker Martin is annoyed. This summer is supposed to be about him overcoming the past year and focusing on regaining his starting position on the university baseball team, earning back his parents' trust, and getting his life on track. Everleigh is a distraction he can't afford. And just when Ryker thinks he has Everleigh pushed out of his mind, she lands in his lap.

Everleigh Wilson is focused on spending one perfect last summer with her best friend, Crestin, before she heads off to college and he heads off to pursue his acting dreams in New York. But when Crestin tells her he thinks Ryker is keeping a secret, she's even more intrigued by his broody nature. Nearly every interaction Everleigh has with Ryker over the summer is contentious, frustrating, irritating. So, when she accepts a two-week job at The Sunflower Experience with Crestin, she is unprepared to discover she will be around Ryker all day every day. For TWO WHOLE WEEKS.

Despite all of this, the two are drawn together, again and again, and the more they learn about the other's secrets, the more they want to know. The Sunflower Experience is a safe space, a utopia away from reality, a promise of something magical. Can Ryker and Everleigh overcome their past traumas to build a connection that will transcend? Or will the reality of their diverging paths keep them from finding something meaningful?
