They say you can't go home again. For Emma, going home means facing him. Ten years. That's how long it's been since Emma fled her coastal hometown and the memory of her first love, Jake. Now, a call for help from her ailing best friend, Sarah, has pulled her back into the world she tried so desperately to escape. She's prepared for the bittersweet nostalgia and the awkward run-ins, but she isn't prepared for Jake to be there, too-just as handsome, just as guarded, and just as tied to the heartbreak that sent her running. Forced into a shared caregiving schedule, their only escape is the quiet stretch of sand at sunrise. With each walk along the tide line, the bitterness of their past softens, replaced by the easy, undeniable chemistry they once shared. But they are no longer the teenagers who promised each other forever. Jake is hiding a life Emma never imagined, and she is carrying a loss he never knew. When a violent storm traps them together and forces their devastating secrets into the open, they must decide if a second chance at love is worth weathering the wreckage of their past.
