1959.

Lizzie Quinlan lives in the shadow of her past. Everyone in Orchard Hill knows Lizzy’s reputation and won’t let her forget it. But in the summer of 1959, Billy Ray Davenport, an itinerant minister’s son, arrives in town. He discovers an indomitable strength behind the allure his father says is designed to lead men astray. Lizzie spouts quirky bursts of wisdom and exudes an effortless sensuality that calls to him like a siren’s song. Billy Ray thinks he could be the one who helps her swim against the tide of disapproval; he could free her once and for all. But a stormy path awaits the unlikely pair. Lizzie’s past cannot help but shape her future, and ready or not, this beautiful, complex mystery girl is about to change Billy Ray’s life. As society’s sands shift under his feet, Billy Ray navigates the tide of approaching adulthood-a journey as ever-changing and ancient as the ocean itself.
