Middletown, Indiana. Summer 1960.
Tommy Kelly is nineteen, with a mechanic's hands and a love too big for a small town that has already decided what he's worth. Susan Hayes is nineteen, with notebooks full of questions and a future mapped out by others. They've been in love in secret for two years when Tommy climbs into his sky-blue Chevrolet to race in a stock car event-and prove he deserves what he loves.
He won't come back.
From 1960 to 2023, Susan lives through sixty-three years without ever setting her grief down. She becomes a librarian, shelves books, fills notebooks, leaves flowers beneath an oak tree. She turns down Indianapolis, turns down David, turns down anything that feels like forgetting. Not out of resignation-by choice. Because some loves can't be replaced. They're carried.
When Summer Fades is a novel about the endurance of love after loss, about how an entire life can be built around an absence and still remain, despite everything, a full life.
