Adam McCarthy boards the ferry to Gansett Island carrying the weight of a terrible week. His three brothers nearly died in a boating accident, and his ex-girlfriend has stolen the computer company he built from the ground up. On the ferry ride home, he encounters Abby Callahan, an old family friend nursing her own wounds after her relationship with Dr. Cal Maitland exploded. Abby has decided to reinvent herself this summer. Gone is the sweet, accommodating woman who followed two different men away from the island. The new Abby gets tattoos, drinks freely, and plans to sleep with whoever she pleases. Adam quickly decides he wants to be the only man in her bed. But his brother Grant still has feelings for Abby, and Grant's girlfriend Stephanie knows it. When Adam gets the chance to return to New York and reclaim his stolen company, both he and Abby must decide if their summer romance can survive the real world.
