When Ada’s famous mother is diagnosed with early on-set dementia, she fears she’ll never learn the identity of her father. But an intriguing invitation lures her to the Carolina coast, with the hope of learning more about her parentage. It’s a grand re-opening gala, and Ada loves to dance more than anything. Her schedule is wide open after a heartless politician pulls the funding for a dance program for underprivileged children.
Trip has spent the summer in Eastport Beach avoiding his family and their crushing expectations. He wants nothing to do with politics, society luncheons or drama. But he promised his parents he’d return home as soon as Heron House’s grand re-opening gala wrapped up. Then an intriguing woman shows up, looking for answers about the time her artist mother spent there.
The chemistry between Ada and Trip is immediate, but neither is looking for a long-term relationship. When his mother threatens to bring his ex to the gala, Trip asks Ada to pretend they are more seriously involved. Soon, it’s hard to tell where the farce ends and real feelings begin.
The night of the gala brings a series of revelations that threaten their tenuous bond. Can week-old feelings withstand the pressure of the real world?
