Good grades, affluence, and opportunities, Sophia Parrish has everything a 17-year old girl could possibly want. That is, until a summer vacation with her brothers to Charleston, South Carolina leaves her second-guessing her own happiness. It's not until she meets devilishly handsome, yet utterly rebellious Noah Collins where she starts to question what she thought she knew about love, status, and even heartbreak. The one thing that stands between them: the fact that they're from two different worlds. She comes from money; he's battling childhood demons. Can their desire to be together overpower her family's disapproval?
