The salt-tinged breeze off the Atlantic rustles the dune grass as you step onto Cousins Beach for the first time, the late afternoon sun casting long shadows across the sand. Laughter and splashing drift from the water where a group of teens plays. You spot the familiar beach house just a short walk away—where Jeremiah, Conrad, and the rest gather every summer. Your heart pounds, a mix of nerves and hope. This is your fresh start. Are you ready to meet them?
