About this ebook
“Storms show up and there ain’t a thing we can do to stop them.”
Sonny Bates left South Carolina fifteen years ago and never looked back. Now she’s a successful Hollywood location scout who travels the world, finding perfect places for movie shoots. Home is wherever she lands, and between her busy schedule and dealing with her boss’s demands, she has little time to think about the past . . . until her latest gig lands her a stone’s throw from everything she left behind.
Searching off the coast of Charleston for a secluded site to film a key scene, Sonny wanders onto a private barrier island and encounters its reclusive owner, known by locals as the Monster of Indigo Isle. What she finds is a man much more complex than the myth.
Once a successful New York attorney, Hudson Renfrow’s grief has exiled him to his island for several years. He spends his days alone, tending his fields of indigo, then making indigo dye—and he has no interest in serving the intrusive needs of a film company or yielding to Sonny’s determined curiosity. But when a hurricane makes landfall on the Carolina coast, stranding them together, an unlikely friendship forms between the two damaged souls. Soon the gruff exterior Hudson has long hidden behind crumbles—exposing the tender part of him that’s desperate for forgiveness and a second chance.
A story of hanging on and letting go, of redemption and reconciliation, and of a love that heals the deepest wounds, from the author of the breakout Southern fiction bestseller Under the Magnolias.

This book really drew me in. It's not my typical read but sounded good and the cover is so pretty. I was back and forth with Sonny's character. I felt bad for her and can see how someone can get in that situation and it just become what it is. But good grief, I got so annoyed with her sticking around and letting it happen. Really upset me. Maybe I related too much with her and sort of felt her pain. Though I've never lived in such a bad situation. And I was also upset about her mom and sister. I felt like Sonny was in early 20s because of how she acted. She wasn't one of my favorite characters. I loved learning about Hudson. He seems so much older than Sonny. The two are opposites. She learns a lot by watching him and being around him. The whole history about the indigo was so amazing. I wanted to live there. It's not too far from me. The narrator is so good. At first I wasn't sure about the southern accent. Being born and raised here in the south, I have a very heavy accent. Wish
