Summer. Secrets. Sun-soaked mistakes... and the boy I should stay away from. This was supposed to be the summer of freedom. Instead, it became the summer that wrecked everything. One minute I'm ready for pool days and late-night drives with my best friends. The next, I'm on a bus to Feather Lake, North Carolina-exiled by my parents with two suitcases and zero warning. No friends. No way out. Just a job I didn't ask for and a summer I definitely didn't want. Enter Ryder Monroe: local heartthrob, full-time menace, and my personal brand of chaos. He's infuriating, impossible to read, and somehow always exactly where I don't want him to be. I swore I wouldn't fall for the brooding boy with a twisted smile and too many secrets. But it only took two days for Ryder to crash into my life-and start tearing it apart from the inside out. Now I'm caught between a boy who feels like sunshine and safety... and the one who feels like a storm I can't stop chasing. He wants to ruin me. I won't let him. But what if the worst thing he could do... is make me feel everything? This summer, love is messy. Hearts will break. And nothing will ever be the same. Cast Away is a tale of love, rivalry, and unexpected connections, where the line between enemies and something more blurs in the heat of a North Carolina summer. Get ready for a story of passion, defiance, and heartache that will leave you breathless. This is book one in the Wrecked series. It is perfect for fans of Jenny Han, Erin Watt, Sarah Dessen, Jillian Dodd, or KL Walther.
