Now that Willow Avery is out of rehab, sheâs got one chance left to prove herself before sheâs officially on every producerâs crap list. At least, thatâs what her parents and agent are claiming. She doesnât really give a damn if she never makes another movieâshe just wants to get on with her life, get back to her friends, and find her next escape. But Willow is broke. And whether she likes it or not, acting is the only job she knows how to do. With no easy answers, Willow accepts the lead role in a re-make of beach drama set in Hawaii. There, she meets Cooper, the gorgeous surfer hired to train her for her new role. With the bluest eyes sheâs ever seen and the sexiest Australian accent sheâs ever heard, Cooperâs different from the men sheâs used to. He doesnât want to use her. And he refuses to let her fail. But when an old friend re-enters Willowâs lifeâa friend whose toxicity sheâs been drawn to time and time before and whose presence brings about the painful memories sheâs tried so hard to suppressâWillow will have to choose between the girl she was and the person sheâs becoming: the lifestyle that helps her forget the pain and the guy sheâs falling hard for.
