The Sand, Sea and Stars is a sweeping, nostalgic romance set on the golden beaches of San Clemente, California during the unforgettable Summer of ’69. In a small coastal town untouched by the chaos beyond its borders, Ava Lynn Fitzgerald and Rodger James (R.J.) Elliott fall into a first love that changes everything. As the world outside faces war, protests, and cultural upheaval, Ava, R.J., and their circle of friends navigate three transformative years of love, identity, heartbreak, and hope. Their story captures the innocence of youth, the ache of distance, and the enduring strength of a bond that survives time. Four decades later, their journey comes full circle in a touching reflection on love, memory, and the magic of the sea.
