Years earlier, in front of the Sunset Inn, Sunlyn Bean & Tradd Morrison become best friends when they crash into each other while riding their bikes. Dating and graduating high school, they promise to attend the same college. But after writing their hopes and dreams inside the journal inside the Kindred Spirit Mailbox, Sunlyn has a change of heart. Pushing Tradd to follow his dreams without her, Sunlyn stays behind on the North Carolina Island. Twenty years later, Tradd leaves his Manhattan restaurant to prepare his mother's beach house for selling. Surprised to find Sunlyn still working at her uncle's coffee shope, Tradd wonders if she ever left the island to pursue her dreams. Can they resurrect their relationship, or is it too late for a second chance at romance?
