Sophie Hayes was engraved into the land of Outer Banks. A town that only seemed to haunt her alongside that five letter last name. That name that held more secrets than its own legacy should have. A name written in blood and greed. And Sophie never fit into just one world- not really. Because by blood, she was both a Kook and a Pogue. And everyone knew that if you lived in the Outer Banks, you were for one side or the other. Not both. Even if that meant someone forced your hand in choosing your side. But when there was someone who walked the other side that you use to know, it makes things a little more complicated than it should have been. And that complication always seemed to be JJ Maybank, himself.
