Cass loves surfing more than anything. Something she would never want to do is abandon her dreams of becoming the surf champ in Los Angeles and leave her best friend, Dakota. Unfortunately, her Mom tells Cass they have to move to Raleigh, North Carolina for her job. This means no beach, no surfing, and no Dakota. Cass wonders how she will survive in this drastically new environment. Maybe there are more important things in life than surfing. Maybe.
