Reckless Paradise

Bri was born into the world of the Kooks-yachts, country clubs, and picture-perfect reputations. But unlike the rest of them, she's always had a foot in both worlds. With her heart tethered to the Pogues, her summers were spent running wild with John B, JJ, Kie, Cleo, Pope, and Sarah, embracing the freedom of the Outer Banks beyond the gated mansions and designer dresses.

Then there's Rafe Cameron-the golden boy turned reckless hurricane, the one name she swore she'd never get involved with. Everyone knows Rafe is dangerous, unpredictable, and drowning in the weight of his father's expectations. He's everything she should run from, and yet, when their paths collide in the heat of an Outer Banks summer, she finds herself drawn to him in ways she can't explain.

What starts as a mistake-one stolen kiss, one heated moment-quickly spirals into something neither of them can control. He's fire, she's gasoline, and their world is already set to burn. As secrets unravel, betrayals surface, and the line between love and destruction blurs, she's forced to ask herself: Is Rafe Cameron capable of love, or is she just another thing he's destined to ruin?

Because in the Outer Banks, love doesn't come without a price. And some flames are meant to consume you whole.
