Alyse Johnson has lived a sheltered life of privilege and wealth, growing up in her prominent family's luxurious mansion on Jacksonville Beach. Now an attorney, she enjoys surfing and living a quiet life in her upscale beach condo. But nothing in her past has prepared her for this wild crazy summer, and what she will go through at the hands of criminals invading her space, all while a Category 4 hurricane blows in off the Atlantic Coast, devastating and destroying her beach community. Alyse and the Connor family lock themselves in trying to avoid the criminal forces running rampant in their storm-abandoned neighborhood. The novel Summer (With Collateral Damage) grabs readers from the first page and is the fourth book of a series that follows the Connor family.
