Josiah and Lillian are best friends whose parents also happen to be very close. Every summer they take their families to Myrtle Beach, and this year is a bit different.

However, overcoming this fear could very well lead to an extraordinary love. It's on Josiah to take the risks and reveal his secrets to Lillian. But can he do that without his anxiety getting in the way?
