Mark Judd arrives on Mustang Island after a friend disappears while investigating Sofia’s boyfriend Carlos Ruiz, a drug trafficker and owner of the bar where she works.

At first Mark and Sofia are wary of each other, but when he stumbles into danger, she comes to his aid, putting herself in Carlos’ cross-hairs. With a hurricane bearing down on them and on the run from Carlos, they must turn to each other if they want to survive . . .
