Four inseparable teenage friends who are forced to spend their first summer apart keep their bond alive by sharing a single pair of jeans that inexplicably fits each of them, sending it from one girl to the next as a talisman of connection. As the pants travel, each girl encounters her own tests—first loves, family tensions, painful loss, and the struggle to define herself—and through those experiences they grow, change, and learn how to support one another even when distance and life pull them in different directions. The story is a tender coming-of-age portrait about friendship, identity, and the ways people hold on to one another through joy and hardship.
