About
After the sudden death of her parents, freelance photographer Ember Hawthorne reluctantly returns to her childhood home on Topsail Island to settle their complex estate . Expecting a quick exit, she instead finds herself trapped by legal obligations and a massive "portfolio" of assets for four to six months . As she struggles to navigate her father's demanding legacy, she is drawn into the orbits of the three Prescott brothers: the charming Camden, the intense and resentful Talon, and the quiet, steady Dane . What began as a mission to sell her past and run back to her independent life in Raleigh becomes a summer of unexpected connection, forced proximity, and a choice between her old life and a new sense of belonging
