They were raised on the same island-but on opposite sides of a line drawn long before they were born. Liora Jean-Baptiste fights to protect her family's beach, a stretch of sand filled with memories and stories that no developer can buy. Kai Archer is the son of the man trying to build over it-his future already chosen for him. When they're forced to co-lead their school's Legacy Expedition project, every meeting feels like a storm: too loud, too close, too dangerous. But between shared glances, midnight texts, and the sound of waves that belong to both of them, the line between hate and love begins to blur. On an island where everyone knows your name-and your family's sins-falling for your enemy isn't just risky. It's forbidden. And when the truth surfaces, it might drown them both. Enemies to lovers. Forbidden love. Island heat. A slow burn worth every scar.
