✦ Synopsis

Jacqueline Laurens has been divorced for a year now, the only one amongst all of her married friends. In the divorce, her ex-husband got the second house, the Porsche and the young girlfriend, and Jackie got custody of their two children, a broken heart, and more guilt than she could ever sift through in a lifetime. Not to mention that it’s Christmas time, the loneliest time of the year, and her 40th birthday is just around the corner.
So when her best friend proposes a spontaneous girls' weekend in Hawaii to celebrate, Jackie couldn’t be more excited. But when her friend’s husband and kids come down with the flu, Jackie reluctantly gets on the plane by herself, more than a little lonely. But she won't be lonely for long...
For in Hawaii, Jackie meets Kai, a gorgeous, confident yet sensitive surf instructor who reawakens the zest for adventure and the fun side of herself that Jackie thought she lost. The only problem: Kai is significantly younger than she is. While that isn’t a problem for a fling, when the phone calls come fast and furious long after the trip has ended, Jackie has to admit to herself that this is more than a fling. But she never thought her friends and her family would be so adamantly opposed to her new relationship and to the way it’s changing her, seemingly for the better.
As she gets pulled in every direction and a surprise forces Jackie to completely reevaluate her life, will she sacrifice her new relationship?
