The Shallows
Your father's wedding puts you six thin-walled nights above his best man's workshop. Wade taught you to drive at sixteen; at twenty-seven, he's finally looking.
You come home for your father's wedding expecting to organize the relatives and sleep in the bunkhouse, until hornets put you in the loft above his best friend's workshop. Wade Kessler gives up his room, works on the family boat beneath your floor, and keeps finding reasons to make the week easier for you. You've known him for years, but at twenty-seven you're meeting a version of him that family visits never gave you: tired after midnight, sleeves rolled back, looking up when you appear on his stairs. His oldest friend is getting married across the lawn, and every window on the porch faces your door. You have six nights to find out how much of that distance Wade actually intends to keep.
