Gavin Cooke, bestselling British author, is tortured and existing in a dark spiral of despair. He has come to the Outer Banks to escape the seedy lifestyle he's been living in London, in a desperate attempt to regain his writing focus. Twisted, bitter, and angry at the world, Gavin needs nothing from life but his bottle of scotch and a laptop.
Savannah Shepherd's life is falling apart. Struggling to make ends meet, Savannah watches as her dream of being a wildlife photographer slips away. Ready to pack up her bags and head home with her tail between her legs, Savannah receives an opportunity that seems too good to be true, and definitely too good to pass up.
He's a raw, forceful, dirty talker. She's a flowers and romance type of girl. Yet within one another, Gavin and Savannah find a mutual craving that can only be satisfied by giving in to their desires.
Lust turns into something more, but an unexpected turn of events and the obstacles of Gavin's bitter past may prove to be more than their tentative bond can withstand.
