The Summer Before

By Meredith Wilson

Ten weeks until she leaves.
One summer that changes everything.

Emma Farley has her whole life planned: serve a mission, come home, get married in the temple. She's been preparing since she was eight years old. Now her mission call to Brazil is finally here.

Claire Hansen just came home from her own mission-confident, experienced, different than Emma remembers. When she offers to help Emma prepare for Brazil, those ten weeks of mission prep become something neither of them expected.

Late-night conversations. Stolen kisses. A love that makes Emma question everything she thought she knew about herself, about God, about who she's supposed to be.

With Emma's departure date looming closer every day, she must choose: the mission she's always wanted, or the love she never saw coming.

A powerful story of first love, forbidden desire, and finding the courage to be true to yourself-even when it costs everything.
