Bree Beckham needs to start over. So she leaves Manhattan for the one place that has always felt safe — Little Bridge. The tiny island in the Florida Keys was her family's favorite vacation spot. With its glassy water and colorful houses, it seems too beautiful to be hit by disaster — until a Category 5 hurricane bears down and residents are urged to evacuate.

But Bree has no intention of leaving. She's got access to a landline and plenty of supplies, and she's certainly not accepting her traitorous ex's offer to fly her to safety in his private plane. When the storm proves devastating, Bree starts to worry — not for hersel, but for the many beloved pets left behind by panicked owners. She has a plan to save as many of the creatures as she can: All residents have to do is call her landline and let her know about their stranded pets, and she'll make sure they're rescued — no questions, no judgments.

It's a daunting task, but help arrives in the form of her boss's sexy nephew, Drew Hartwell, the island's resident heartbreaker. But when Bree's ex shows up just as she is falling hard for Drew, she has to ask herself if their steamy connection is just a passing storm — or a bond that's built to last.
