A boy desperate to hold on, a girl ready to let go.
Fitz Holton waits in fear for the day his single mother´s early-onset Alzheimer´s starts stealing her memory. He´s vowed to stay close to home to care for her in the years to come--never mind the ridiculous college tour she´s forcing him on to visit schools where he knows he´ll never go. Juniper Ramirez is counting down the days until she can leave home, a home crowded with five younger siblings and zero privacy. Against the wishes of her tight-knit family, Juniper plans her own college tour of the East Coast with one goal: get out.
When Fitz and Juniper cross paths on their first college tour in Boston, they´re at odds from the moment they meet-- while Juniper´s dying to start a new life apart from her family, Fitz faces the sacrifices he must make for his. Their relationship sparks a deep connection--in each other´s eyes, they glimpse alternate possibilities regarding the first big decision of their adult lives.
Time of Our Lives is a story of home and away, of the wonder and weight of memory, of outgrowing fears and growing into the future.
