Love is a Storm

Last summer, Shelby's world was turned upside down, lost in the memory of one mistake. She didn't know that by continuously shutting it out, what she thought would be a summer of friendship, leisure, and new beginnings, would ultimately be the main reason she would find herself running away from it all.

A new summer. A fresh start. Those were Shelby's thoughts as she stepped out of the airport to meet her best friend's boyfriend. She was surprising Callie for a summer of fun, but what she didn't realize was her summer was going to be so much more eventful. Returning to the shore was going to bring an unexpected surprise that Shelby thought she had left in her past.

Liam Brooks was ruggedly handsome with his chiseled jaw line, tussled hair and dark brown eyes. He was hard working, and everything a girl could want. Pure seduction. He knew what to expect when he came back to Orange Beach, but what he didn't know was how hard he would have to work to put the shattered pieces back together.

Surprised and standing on the porch, her breaths were heavy and fast, feeling as if she couldn't catch herself from falling. Shelby swallowed, then let out a deep breath before spinning around to face him. Seeing her hands mold into tight fists, he knew what would come next- he had planned for this. Gasping to himself at how gorgeous and tempting she was, he remembered the way she felt in his arms, and the gentle moan she made when he kissed her lips. The fire in her eyes before had been filled with wonder and lust. Now, those eyes were shooting daggers at him.

With a shared secret and unknown forgiveness, Shelby and Liam collide in a way we never saw coming. Caught up in lies, misunderstandings and jealousy, they must decide if it's all really worth it.
