Two weekends ...Seven years apart.

It's 2007...
A girl and a boy spend one weekend together, holed up in a ramshackle bungalow on the beach. They share hopes and dreams and passion but not their names or numbers. After all, they plan on never seeing each other again.

It's 2014...
Amanda is just getting out of a bad relationship and struggling to find her footing in small town Cape May. Drew, newly engaged, returns to the coastal hamlet with his fiancée and her family in tow. One misread map and a surfboard wipeout later, Amanda and Drew cross paths once again. 

After a cozy sunset, country club luncheon, and perilous boat ride, Amanda and Drew fight to ignore the spark that first ignited seven years ago. But what happens when fate strands them in the bungalow for one last night?
