Four girls. Four girls skating home, both sides of the road, fearless. Four girls at the mouth of an infinite ocean, sugared and salted with sand and seawater, the tide licking their sunburned feet. This summer, they’re going to disappear.

Caroline is counting the days until September when she'll turn 17 and she and her older boyfriend, Jake, will run away together. She doesn't feel connected to anyone at home now that she has him, and she can't wait to see the world with the most important person in her life. So with just a few more months until freedom, she spends her summer working at the local aquarium gift shop and dreaming of the fall. Then she meets Georgia, a counselor at the aquarium's camp, and Caroline's world changes.

El plan es el siguiente: cuando Caroline cumpla diecisiete años, ella y su novio Jake huirán de su pequeño pueblo para nunca regresar. Desde que se conocieron, Caroline siente que las paredes de su cuarto la asfixian y escapar con el amor de su vida le parece la mejor idea del planeta. Un par de meses antes de la fuga, Caroline consigue un trabajo de verano en la tienda de regalos del acuario local, donde pasa horas fantaseando sobre su nueva vida. Todo está planeado a la perfección, hasta que conoce a Georgia, una guía del campamento del acuario que cambiará su vida.
