The Last Summer Matinee
A Novel of First Love, Friendship, and the Summer That Changed EverythingBy Josephine L. Redfern
Length6h 40m
About this audiobook
One last summer on the boardwalk, where the old Seaview theater still flickers to life every night and the future feels both impossibly close and impossibly far away. As her family quietly comes apart at home, she finds a fresh start among the lights and long nights — and a first love that asks her to stop pretending and finally tell the truth. A tender, golden-hour coming-of-age story about first love, the summer that changes everything, and the secret that finally sets her free — for readers who know that some summers you never stop carrying with you.
