"Let's play a game." Chris said with a smirk.

"What game?" I asked nervously, glancing at all the faces in the small room.

"It's called The Chase. The girls get twenty minutes to hide anywhere on the entire island, except no hiding on private property. After twenty minutes, the boys will  then split up and go searching. If one of us finds one of you girls that girl has to do whatever we want."

"And if we win?" I ask challengingly.

"Your choice." He said narrowing his eyes.

Unfortunately, Kat's room is the only one left, but she offers to share. When the group decides to take part in a beach volleyball summer tournament, Kat comes face to face with the one person she was trying to forget. her ex, Oliver Green.

Anna offers to continue the act and make Oliver see what he's missing out on. When she discovers that not only is Oliver part of the volleyball team, but that his group of friends rented the same house next to theirs, she realizes she has to step up her game with Anna.
