Renna, Christopher - Salt of the Sea (2024) - Frenuyum - 11-21-2025
The road to happily ever after follows a dangerous detour in this literary coming-of-age about love, grief, and retribution.
Emerson is counting down the days until graduation from private school. His boyfriend, River, is living an impoverished day-to-day life protecting his mother and younger brother from his abusive and criminal father. Despite the challenges, they have always loved each other and dreamt of a future together. Now Emerson is about to embark for college, but River isn't ready to leave his family to fend for themselves. When River's father pulls off a crime with a big payout, River steals the money so he can relocate his mother and brother to safety before joining Emerson at college. But after River vanishes and is presumed dead, a heartbroken Emerson seeks answers and revenge before attempting the unimaginable—a life without his perfect ending.
