Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Christy Award Winner for Contemporary Romance and Book of the Year! "Storms show up and there ain't a thing we can do to stop them." Sonny Bates left South Carolina fifteen years ago and never looked back. Now she's a successful Hollywood location scout who travels the world, finding perfect places for movie shoots. Home is wherever she lands, and between her busy schedule and dealing with her boss's demands, she has little time to think about the past . . . until her latest gig lands her a stone's throw from everything she left behind. Searching off the coast of Charleston for a secluded site to film a key scene, Sonny wanders onto a private barrier island and encounters its reclusive owner, known by locals as the Monster of Indigo Isle. What she finds is a man much more complex than the myth. Once a successful New York attorney, Hudson Renfrow's grief has exiled him to his island for several years.
