Hunter Markham left home to travel the world for fame and glory, finding it as a top ranked professional surfer. Now he's returned home to the sand and salty breeze of the North Carolina Outer Banks so he can open The Last Call, a beach bar nestled among the dunes of the Atlantic. Five years ago, Gabby Ward drunkenly threw herself at her best friend's brother, only to have her young heart crushed. Hunter is back but Gabby is content to stay far away from him and his dangerously charming ways. Gabby's well-schemed plans to ignore Hunter go up in flames when he presents her an offer she simply can't refuse. Working together day in and day out proves problematic for two reasons--Gabby realizes her feelings for Hunter are still very much alive, while Hunter struggles to break through to Gabby's cold heart. What starts out as a mutual business arrangement soon turns into a passion that neither can deny. But when the pro surfing tour comes knocking and Hunter has a chance to reclaim his former glory, hard choices lie ahead for both of them. Choices that could destroy what they have built or take them further than they could ever dare to hope in their second chance at romance.
