Isabella Santini leaves behind the weight of her troubled past in Italy, hoping to start fresh on the sun-drenched shores of the Outer Banks. As an exchange student living with the wealthy and enigmatic Cameron family, she quickly finds herself drawn to Rafe-a magnetic force of charm, chaos, and danger. Torn between the quiet life she's been chasing and the storm he brings into her world, she must navigate her fears, confront her past, and decide if she's willing to risk her heart for a love as unpredictable as the ocean tides.
