Private nurse Claire Turner has built her life around a mantra that keeps her safe: never get attached. Her solitude is a protective armor, a necessity born from a past she can't escape. As a witness against dangerous individuals, Claire finds herself on the run, constantly ready to leave everything behind at a moment's notice. Living under an assumed identity, she juggles the realities of caring for others while tamping down her own fears and heartache.
In the serene setting of a picturesque summer hideaway, Claire's carefully constructed walls begin to crack. The beauty of the surroundings, with its warm sun and soothing waves, awakens emotions she thought she had buried deep. Here, she encounters chance allies who challenge her resolve to remain aloof, each connection stirring a longing for a life she can't afford to glimpse.
As summer unfolds, Claire faces the conflict within herself: can she truly escape her past, or will the ties she’s avoiding become the very source of her salvation? In a narrative rich with tension and hope, the summer hideaway becomes a crossroads between freedom and vulnerability, compelling Claire to confront what it truly means to be free.
