American Summer (2026)

At sixty-something, Mikey finds himself swept back in time to the unforgettable season that defined his youth. That pivotal summer, he crossed paths with Kelly—the girl who would become his first true heartthrob—earned his place on the traveling all-star baseball squad, and took on his very first paycheck job. Yet, all of this personal triumph unfolded against the shadow of a life-altering upheaval: his father, deployed on a secret military operation, had suddenly vanished overseas. It was in that whirlwind of first love, dusty dugouts, and newfound responsibility that Mikey took his tentative first steps out of boyhood and into the man he was meant to become.
