Bobby was a high school senior more interested in his classic car than his upcoming French final. With graduation on the line, his wealthy father issued an ultimatum: pass the exam, or lose the keys to his freedom.
Enter Terry, a beautiful and brilliant graduate student hired to ensure Bobby didn't fail. What started as a strictly academic arrangement in the quiet library of his family’s estate quickly shifted. As they spent long afternoons translating poetry and discussing philosophy, the lines between student and teacher began to blur. Bobby found himself actually wanting to learn, not just for the grade, but to impress the woman who seemed to see a potential in him that he hadn’t noticed himself.
Their summer of lessons became a coming-of-age journey, where the most important things Bobby learned weren't found in a French textbook, but in the complicated, bittersweet reality of first love and growing up.
