Then she got her first look at the rundown motel he planned on rehabbing back to its former glory, and she was convinced.Desperately homesick and missing her friends, she’s all but counting the days until she’s able to graduate and move back to Florida and get back to life as she knew it. But through happenstance she meets the enigmatic Luke, and from that point on her life takes a rapid one-eighty turn. From beach parties to garage band practice with his friends, Luke shows Zoey what life on the island can be like, and that if you’re willing to open your heart, home is never far away.
