New York Times bestselling author of the After series and ‘the biggest literary phenom of her generation’ (Cosmopolitan) Anna Todd returns with a moving and empowering new romance about a young woman whose life transforms during a summer in Mallorca with a mysterious local.
Between chronic health issues and an overprotective mother, twenty-two-year-old Oriah Pera feels like she’s stuck waiting for her life to begin. But when her mother’s job takes them to Mallorca, Ry’s ready to break free and make this summer hers.
In her first small act of rebellion, she escapes to explore the island on her own – only to run into an infuriatingly charming Spaniard who sees her as nothing more than a sheltered tourist. With unexpected tension simmering between them, Ry isn't sure if she should start listening to her head or her heart.
As the summer rolls on, Julián has a way of pulling Ry out of her shell and showing her the adventure she’s always craved. But the secret Ry’s keeping from him – and her eventual return to America – cast a long shadow. Before the last sunrise ends, Ry must decide if she’s brave enough to finally follow her heart and live for herself.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Todd (After) breaks hearts and puts them back together with this tearjerker about a sheltered young woman with a potentially life-threatening genetic condition. Oriah "Ry" Pera has tuberous sclerosis, which causes invasive growths on internal organs, and she's refused the risky surgery that might remove them from her brain at the expense of her memories and possibly her life, much to the dismay of her wealthy and overprotective single mother, Isolde. When Isolde's company sends her to Mallorca, where she has deep roots, for the summer, Ry tags along, hoping to find out more about her family's past. Vowing to spend the summer as if every day were her last—which, as her condition worsens, it very well could be—Ry makes a happy-go-lucky new friend in scene-stealer Amara and falls hard for handsome local fisherman Julián Garcia. Todd mines deep emotions from this bittersweet premise and keeps the drama flowing with reveals about Isolde's past—including an unexpected connection between Isolde and Julián's father. The swoony romance and gorgeous backdrop are the cherries on top. Readers will want to have tissues at the ready.
