Chapter 1

Vanessa, forced to go on a retreat to make her mother fit in, gets much worse than a 'vacay in the sun'. Their private plane goes down, the pilot's a goner, and now they're stranded on an island.

This island is just like the back woods she was raised in long before her family became rich. With seven women who'd never set foot on wild terrain outside a controlled hike, she's got a lot on her plate. It quickly becomes clear that Vanessa is in her element. She's strong, thinks on her feet, and beautiful.

Before she'd been just another trust fund princess. Now, it's hard not to fall for Vanessa the survivor. Trapped on an island full of hormones, and raised tensions. Vanessa finds herself entangled in more than she bargained for.
