About the book
Throughout her entire life, Grace Ryan was constantly labeled as the "fat girl." She endured teasing and bullying from her peers, and despite trying numerous diets, she saw no results. Feeling desperate to make a change as she entered her twenties, Grace made the decision to undergo lap-band surgery. Over a year later, she has successfully shed 130 pounds and is ready to explore the world of dating for the first time. While on a boat trip to Gansett Island with her new partner, Grace chooses not to engage in intimacy and soon finds herself stranded at McCarthy's Gansett Island Marina without any money.
Back home for the summer as he prepares for the release of his first CD, rising music star Evan McCarthy is performing at the Tiki Bar when he notices Grace looking lost amidst a crowd of cheerful people. Evan steps in to assist her and quickly becomes captivated by her. However, the last thing Grace wants after everything she has been through is a man who avoids commitment. Will Evan be willing to change his ways to win over Grace's heart?
