Sam Tibbits loves life--especially life at Piddock Beach,
where his family spends their vacations. It's here that he's
come to care for Aubrey, his childhood confidante. So the
year Aubrey's family moves away with no forwarding address,
Sam is crushed--he was going to propose. Aubrey McCart
enjoys being with Sam; he accepts her unconditionally like
her father never has. But when her father's pride and joy
'her brother' is killed in Vietnam, Aubrey is unable to
cope. She chooses a path that changes her life forever,
leading her away from Sam. Years later, as Sam and Aubrey
find themselves back at Piddock Beach, the two are forced to
confront their abandoned friendship and make peace with
their lives. But can they do so without overstepping their
moral boundaries?
