The Last Summer Promise

By Yanilda Ramos

Some summers last only a season. Their memories last a lifetime.

Margaret Contreras never expected a simple decision to change her life.

Living in New York while balancing work, college, and the challenges of starting over far from home, she decides to take a chance on something completely new. One unexpected conversation leads to a quiet friendship with Johnny, a thoughtful exchange student from Slovakia, and together they begin exploring the city one summer day at a time.

From peaceful afternoons in the New York Botanical Garden to handwritten notes in different languages, their connection grows through shared conversations, laughter, and the beauty of ordinary moments. But as summer draws to a close, both must face a question that has no easy answer:

Can some promises survive even when the season that created them comes to an end?

Blending romance, self-discovery, and the bittersweet passage of time, The Last Summer Promise is a heartfelt coming-of-age novel about first love, belonging, and the memories that quietly shape who we become.

Perfect for readers who enjoy gentle contemporary romance, emotional journeys, and stories that linger long after the final page.
