Summary
It was supposed to be a simple summer for Annie. She’d take the train, get to camp, deal with brats for three months, then go home. It sounded reasonable. Doable. She’s been promised a good time. She could figure life out afterwards.
Then Armin Arlert entered the scene: ray of sunshine, romcom enthusiast, and optimist. Painfully handsome on top of that. So when he proposed a falling in love montage, no attachments, just the fun part of a relationship, she couldn’t find a good enough reason to say no.
But, under the starry night, in the warmth of his affection, stories from the past start unfolding. How will she deal with these newfound secrets?
