When Toby, the gorgeous jerk who was with Izzy on the night she vanished, comes to Bottomrock to work as a lifeguard alongside Teddy, she can't help but be suspicious. How many of her sister's secrets does he hold? And how can Teddy unearth them--without falling for the boy who watched her sister disappear?"--Provided by publisher.
