When Savannah Watkins confronts her unfaithful lover, ending yet another relationship, she knows it's time to finally learn her lesson and start leaving her heart out of the equation. Instead of pouring time and energy into undeserving men, Savannah decides to focus on herself-and to fulfill her dream of finally getting a college degree.
It's the perfect plan-until Savannah finds herself sitting in a class taught by David, the man Savannah considers her "first mistake."
Tensions build as Savannah and David clash, both in the classroom and out of it. As they attempt to decipher their complex feelings and map a way forward in light of their history, the two confront hidden desires and motives.
With a clear plan of making Savannah his, David convinces her to go back to the island of St. Maarten-the place they are from. Revelations from Savannah's past threaten to cloud her ability to see things clearly. Afraid of her feelings, Savannah bolts, leaving David to pick up the pieces of his heart and his life.
But with such a strong connection between them, will she really stay away forever? Or will the past call her back to embrace her future?
