Tessa is the type of girl who doesn't let anyone order her around. She's a free spirit, and her rebellious nature has made her very good at bad decisions. That being said, she has been trying to get her life together, if only a bit. Those plans go up in smoke, however, when she gets forced to go on vacation after her car breaks down in the middle of the desert, with the only place nearby for her to stay is the charming neighbourhood of Sandy Shores. There, she meets a clingy old man by the name of Trevor who leads her down a road of bad decisions and pure fun.
