On a beautiful beach on the big island of Hawaii, a faint cry drives a brave young woman to put her life in danger to save a young boy's life.

She was unprepared for the overwhelming feelings that she had for the injured young woman. An unplanned meeting and the events of that day would set in motion a romance so compelling that it would force both women to make very hard decisions if they were to ever be together.

While Shannon waits terrified for her lover and partner to return, would the fate that brought them together tear them apart?
