Don't fall in love. That was the goal.
Annabel Henley's life felt uncertain until she met Beau Laine. Her simple narrative took a sharp turn the summer before her senior year when she moved cross-country from California to Louisiana. Determined to guard her heart in an unfamiliar place, Annabel was unprepared for Beau, the southern boy with southern charm. Despite her resolution not to fall in love, Beau's persistence made it impossible to keep her promise.
Eight years later, Annabel is at a pivotal point in her life. Ever since meeting Beau, she has been unable to move on. When a devastating hurricane strikes the southeast coast, Annabel returns to Louisiana, reconnecting with the home that profoundly shaped her. Here, she once again encounters Beau, the boy she never truly forgot, the one who made it impossible for her to let go.
In the aftermath of a hurricane, amidst the ruins and the memories, Annabel and Beau's paths cross once more. Their first love story had an end, but can they truly endure the pain of another ending?
