Avalon Summer is a coming-of-age summer romance set in 1965 in the resort town of Avalon, Santa Catalina Island. On the brink of adulthood, three men and four women experience love, heartbreak, and self-discovery against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, the Watts race riots, and Top 40 radio.

Sil: Surfer, womanizer, and draft dodger. His motto, "never in love, only in heat", is about to be challenged.

Candy: The beautiful young actress, driven by ambition, and haunted by the past.

J. T.: A black man trying to succeed in a white man's world, and tempted by forbidden love.

Donna: Looking for love in all the wrong places, and harboring a dark secret.

Lynn: She came to Avalon for a change of scenery, but found romance instead.

Waxie: Easy-going teen now torn between his family and the girl he loves.

Jimmy: Sensitive and brooding, he has this one last summer to mend a broken heart before going off to war.

Their lives will intersect in Avalon, and they will discover truths about themselves, life, and love on the Island of Romance.
