Kassidy Karlson-a social media powerhouse-is fed up with throwaway trends and longs to turn her fame into something meaningful. But when a career-shattering mistake forces her to retreat from the spotlight, she finds herself on an isolated island in the Pacific Northwest, shrouded in family secrets.
There, she discovers that her arrival was no accident and that this place holds both the key to her redemption and a love she never expected-one that binds her to a man and to the last wild orcas of the Pacific Northwest.
