This summer they'll keep their promise. This summer they won't give into temptation. This summer will be different.
The first time Lucy and Felix met she was on vacation on Prince Edward Island. And a tour of the beaches wasn't the only thing he showed her. But when she discovered his true identity as her best friend, Bridget's brother, their electric night should have become a distant memory...
Each year with Lucy and Bridget's return for a summer escape, she promises herself she won't end up in Felix's arms, but it's easier said than done.
Not this year though. This year it will be different. With Bridget facing the biggest crisis of her life, Lucy must join her for one last trip to the island.
But Felix's sparkling eyes and flirty quips have been replaced with something new, something more and Lucy's beginning to wonder just how safe her heart truly is.
