She's also caught in a kind of tug-of-war for her spirit, a contest between her prim and sensible mother and her beautiful reckless cousin, Angela.

Angela lives by the ocean, across the coastal plain, at a place called Ferris Beach. Angela is everything that Cleve Burns is not -- imaginative and untethered as the wind. On one side, Kate faces the pull of reason and safety and on the other the lure of romance, mystery and danger.

It is the early 1970s, and when the land across the road from the Burns's historic house is sold to developers, Misty Rhodes—also from Ferris Beach—and her flamboyant parents move into the nearest newly built split-level. In contrast to Katie’s composed, reserved, practical mother, Misty and her mother are everything Katie wants to be: daring, outrageous, fun. The two girls become inseparable, sharing every secret, every dream—until one fateful Fourth of July, when their lives change in a way they could never have imagined.
