A stunning story of first love, ancient echoes, and the power of rewriting your own fate.Callie Quinn has never left Catalina Island. Her world is a crumbling cliffside inn, a father who's more prison guard than parent, and a curse she believes she's doomed to repeat: every summer brings a boy, a spark-and then a goodbye. Until one summer everything changes.A storm. A shipwreck. A boy washed ashore.Odie is secretive, wounded, and desperate to disappear. Callie offers him shelter, a place to heal, and slowly, something more. But Odie is no ordinary castaway. He carries secrets that could destroy them both.
