Caitlin Shelby was the last passenger to get on board the Catalina Express, a one-hour boat service to Avalon, Catalina Island. Having recently graduated as a Registered Nurse, she is employed at a hospital in Long Beach, but she is not happy with her job. She is also mending her broken heart since her relationship with boyfriend and co-worker, Dr. Caffrey Quinn, ended suddenly.
This two-week trip to Avalon is a gift from her parents, complete with a cottage and a two-day hike through the Interior. During this time, she hopes to resolve her dissatisfaction regarding her career and her personal life.
On the second day of her hike, she falls awkwardly over a large rock. Her friends take her to the local clinic for attention. The events that follow will lead Caitlin to a chance encounter with Shaun Morris, MD, the Island's most eligible bachelor.
During this two-week vacation, Caitlin will find employment, accommodation, and a new love. But she will be challenged by inner conflict when her former boyfriend surprisingly returns. Is Shaun truly the one for Caitlin, or is Caffrey going to draw her away from the shores of Catalina?
