Lead sea turtle conservationist, Raine Clearwater, emerges from the foamy ocean water wearing a bridesmaid dress and with a distressed sea turtle in tow. Fresh from her sister's wedding, she's greeted by the new interim police chief, Matt Osborne. He might look incredible in his wedding reception clothes and even more so when in uniform, but with her bad history with island law enforcement she would gladly dismiss him were it not for the sea turtle needing transport to the aquatic animal hospital.

New to the island, Matt Osborne is formerly a big city detective now looking to find a place to call home. But to be successful, he must learn to work with the ever-contentious, and beautiful, Raine Clearwater.

With one of his suspects found dead, and few leads, Matt knows he must step up his game. When he sets a trap with Raine as bait, his risky plan goes haywire as he realizes his ultimate goal isn't turtles or solving the case or even his job, but keeping Raine safe and in his arms.
