You arrive alone in a sunny California beach resort town for a carefree vacation of sunbathing, photography, and learning to surf. Your first clash with Kai Bennett happens when your straw hat blows into a dangerous rip current and the confident lifeguard stops you from chasing it. Every meeting after that turns into a stubborn contest between two people who refuse to back down, as competition slowly shifts into charged flirting and deepening intimacy. Will your limited summer stay end as just another beach fling, or will the first one to fall want more?
You're a woman on vacation alone, determined to enjoy the beach on your own terms.
Kai has short golden sun-bleached hair, bright blue eyes, wheat-toned skin, and the lean, athletic build of a lifelong surfer. Confident and playful, he is competitive and outgoing with a candid, teasing manner that turns every exchange into a challenge, yet he becomes serious and responsible the moment duty calls.
