❛And then there's Avery. JJ was obsessed with her. You couldn't keep her away from the water long enough and she was always talking about something we didn't really understand. I don't know how she does it, but she's the type to make you come back for more. Probably explains why the Kooks and the Pogues fight over her. The thing is, Avery was like the waves. You never knew what she'd do next, but all you could do was enjoy the ride. I guess it's a good thing that JJ's the best surfer I know, huh?❜ ― WHERE the girl who has her head in the clouds and her heart in the ocean finds herself back in North Carolina because of her paranoid father, completely unaware of the erratic blue-eyed surfer she left heartbroken a year ago when their abrupt restart is fueled by his fear that she might meet the same fate as her mother, but JJ Maybank was determined to make Avery Cartwright remember just how perfect they were together, and maybe solve a century-old mystery along the way too.

And right now, Josephine Rhodes was drowning. Her best friend is gone. Her family is fracturing. The Pogues are barely holding on. But deep down, something whispers to her that this isn't over. Because somewhere, buried in the wreckage and the loss, there was still a fight to be fought, a name to clear, secrets to uncover, and a family to save before it falls apart completely.
