At the beach, life is different. Time doesn't go hour to hour but mood to moment. We live by the currents, plan by the tides and follow the sun.
~~~~~~
Summer is rolling in, and Lacey Baker and her friends are ready to have time to spend at the beach. Lacey hasn't had the easiest past two years, her mother died in a serious accident, and her schedule revolves around college as she has aged to fifteen. But with her friends, and her loving boyfriend, and of course; the beach: she manages to obtain happiness. But when the summer that was supposed to change everything, gets twisted when a new boy moves in next door and certain obstacles leave her world a wreckage, she must learn what really matters in life.
