When she moves from Charleston to the Outer Banks, she’s prepared for a lot of things. Starting over. Living on an island where everyone seems to know everyone. Being dragged into her father’s newest obsession: real estate. What she isn’t prepared for is Rafe Cameron. fresh from Charleston, and somehow managing to challenge him at every turn. Rafe tells himself he can’t stand her. She’s too young, too stubborn, and far too comfortable acting like she belongs in a world she’s only just entered. Things get worse when she befriends Sarah Cameron. And even worse when Sarah introduces her to the Pogues. Suddenly, the girl who lives next door is spending her days with the very people who hate everything Rafe stands for. To him, it feels like a betrayal. To her, it feels like freedom. Caught between family expectations, bitter competition, and a rivalry neither of them can walk away from, they’re forced into each other’s orbit again and again. The problem? The more they fight, the harder it becomes to ignore what’s underneath all that anger. And on an island where everyone has secrets, some feelings are far more dangerous than hate.
