The bare naked buns of my brother's best friend greet me in Florida. I haven’t seen Soren Mathews since the most embarrassing night of my life. Now ten years older, he’s all grizzly man. With a sexy beard and new scars, he draws me right back under his spell. For one night the storm keeps us under the same roof and we finally live out all our teenage fantasies and secret desires. But the sea calls him the next morning and he's gone. I try to move forward with a new life in Candy Cane Key, but I can't stop thinking about him. I can't seem to eat and all I want to do is sleep. I'm restless and lost until he comes back and by then we’ve both got secrets we’ve been keeping.
