Notes on the story

They say the Outer Banks are paradise on earth, yet Cassandra Brown begs to differ wholeheartedly with this statement.

After her tormented return to the OBX, her chances of living an almost ordinary summer are crushed by a problematic liaison with Rafe Cameron. Considered by some to be the prince of the Kooks, the golden boy has a ghastly secret haunting him. Will he be able to let go of the shadows of his past?

As for Cassandra, it is clear that this new acquaintance is destined to mark her life forever: whether it will be for her own good or a terrible misfortune has yet to be revealed.
