Sisters are known to share many things - but not the same boyfriend. The most basic "girl code" states that you never date a friend's ex. So wouldn't it be obvious that a current boyfriend is really off limits - especially to your own sister? Apparently Jamie Newman's half sister Laurel didn't get the memo. Leaving behind New York - and the humiliation - Jamie heads to the tiny barrier island of Seaside Cover, North Caroline, for a quiet summer of healing her broken heart and reassessing her sudden disaster of a life. But instead of solace in a cozy beach cottage, she finds a rundown bungalow complete with stray cats and a leaky roof - and of course it's raining - and the repairman is M.I.A... Strays and colorful neighbors are nothing compared to her next visitors. First her drama-prone mother barges in. Then her angst-ridden teenage niece arrives. And the grand finale of the crazy storm is the arrival of Laurel, who's been dumped by Jaime's ex. And of course there's the repairman, who's finally shown his face - and is way too attractive for Jamie's own good. It's clear there's more to him than meets the eye, and Jamie would like to know what, but with the family she tried to escape now crammed in her ramshackle cottage, she may never get the chance...
