Aspiring writer Alice Scott and Pulitzer-winning curmudgeon Hayden Anderson land on Little Crescent Island to compete for the chance to write the biography of the elusive Margaret Ives—heiress, tabloid sensation, and keeper of secrets. With only a month to win her over, Alice must prove herself against Hayden, who sees her as real competition. But as Margaret doles out selective truths under strict NDAs, and an undeniable tension grows between Alice and Hayden, their story—like Margaret’s—could be a mystery, tragedy, or love story, depending on who tells it.
