Mel is used to her best friend occupying the spotlight. Beautiful, intimidating, and too smart for her own good, Jo is the quintessential queen bee--but high school is over, and Mel and Jo are on their own in gritty surf haven Orchid Beach. Mel envisions a chill summer spent practicing for an upcoming surf contest, but Jo’s got other ideas… and Mel is at the center of her big plan.

Years before, Mel saw something she still can’t explain: her mother stepping into water and emerging as something more than a woman. Ever since, the possibilities of her heritage have haunted her, and Jo intends to turn those possibilities into reality. Through witchcraft Mel can’t quite believe in and willpower she’s never been able to deny, Jo carries out her plan with an intensity that swells until the bonds between the two girls are frayed to breaking.
