Why is growing up such a wipeout? Hang ten for a gnarly ride packed with romance, rebellion, epic adventures, and some serious plot twists. Meet Luke, a seventeen-year-old grom who's finally ready to shed his sheltered skin and catch a killer wave of life experiences. The parents are out of town for a couple weeks, and he's yelling, "South Florida! I'm stoked for some proper Salt Life action; sunshine, waves, parties, and girls!" It's all on the agenda! Just when the good times are totally pumping, Luke hits a gnarly reef. Bam! It's pure chaos as he accidentally steps into some serious rip currents starting a full-blown firestorm of trouble, ignites a full-on inferno, and ends up spending a gritty night behind bars with his face looking like it went through a blender. How's he gonna navigate this maze of new feels and unexpected closeouts? Dive into the unknown with Luke on his wild summer shred-fest. Yeah, he's got a barrel full of heavy stuff on his plate—temptation, sticky fingers, sketchy moves, ego trips, shame, hidden truths, and straight-up lies—and Luke's trying his best to keep it all on the down-low. But as the stakes get higher than a triple-overhead wave, can he keep everyone from finding out the real deal? Has the set already closed out on him? Is it too late to turn the board around? Will his twin sister Sara and their crew paddle out to rescue him, or has he completely blown his chances?? This coming-of-age story is packed with action, drama, and major emotional swells.
