After her legal career comes to a sudden and humiliating end, Liliane Lyon books a summer rental in Miami Beach, where her only plan is to bask in the sun, read, and sip cocktails. But soon she's enchanted by university professor Benedicto Romero. When they discover a shared passion for romance novels, Lily and Ben are soon spending hours reading together by the pool. But they can't make sense of the sizzling chemistry between them, and the suggestion of a professional podcast suddenly forces them to consider the long-term. It's the summer of taking chances, but a word to the wise: Miami isn't the place for growth and rebirth. It's the place to get messy.
