I never meant to run away—I just needed to breathe. To escape the life my parents had meticulously planned for the law degree, the perfect fiancé, the country club future. So when I met a boy on fall break who promised adventure, I jumped in an RV with him and never looked back.
But it didn’t last. I found myself stranded at a campground with nothing but my grandmother’s ring. Pawning it was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but staying in Sandcastle Cove? That was easy. The island felt more like home than Boston ever did.
And then there’s Anson. He’s flirty, a little reckless, and entirely too charming—but he sees me, the real me, in a way no one else ever has.
For the first time, I’m building a life I truly love. However, just when I start to feel settled, my past comes to drag me back. Now I have to decide—do I go back to the girl they raised me to be or fight for the woman I’m becoming?
