Dear future us . . . there's something you should know.
Nel, Flo, Maggie and Nicole havent been friends for years. Caught in the limbo summer between college and Uni, each of the girls are at a precipice, deciding the direction of the rest of their lives.
Nel has her sights set on a gap year chasing sunsets, but her parents have other ideas. Flo is desperate to make it into art school, but her secret romance is distracting her from her work and making it hard for her to leave. Maggie is desperate to move as far from home as possible, leaving her toxic boyfriend behind. And then theres Nicole who, unbeknown to the other girls, has been hospitalized and may have to re-take the year.
