That wasn’t fair to Judah—or to her dad, whom she hasn’t spoken with in all this time.

It’s time to move on—alone and independent. But when hurricane winds and destructive waves hit the coastal town, and she must face her greatest fear, will she cling to her plans and live with regret, or let them go to find love again?
