Every town has its secrets...
In idyllic Alara Cove, a California beach town known for its sunny charm and chill surfer vibe, it's graduation day to the elite Thornton Academy. The class valedictorian is Nikki Graziola, a surfer's daughter who is there on scholarship. To the shock of everyone in the audience, Nikki's commencement address reveals a secret that breaks open the whole community. As her truth explodes into the light, Alara Cove will face a reckoning.
Her new notoriety sends Nikki into exile for years, were she finds fame—but not fortune—overseas as a competitive surfer...until a personal tragedy compels her to return to Alara Cove.
As Nikki struggles to rebuild her future, she finds that the people of the town have not forgotten her. But time has changed Alara Cove, and she's drawn back into the life of the beach town she's never quite forgotten, and where joy and redemption may be possible after all.
