The streaming service shared a poster and premiere date, June 17, for the teen romance series Thursday.
The Summer I Turned Pretty is a multigenerational drama that hinges on a love triangle between one girl and two brothers, the ever-evolving relationship between mothers and their children, and the enduring power of strong female friendship.
"It's a coming-of-age story about first love, first heartbreak, and the magic of that one perfect summer," an official description reads.

The Summer I Turned Pretty was published in 2009 and was followed by two sequels, It's Not Summer Without You and We'll Always Have Summer.
Han is also known for writing the To All the Boys book series, which was previously adapted as a trilogy of films at Netflix starring Lana Condor. Netflix is developing a spinoff series, XO Kitty, starring Anna Cathcart.
