10-year-old Gwen Cooke was beckoned one night to the sea. Along the shores of the beach, she saw a boy dive into a wave. Worried for the sake of the boy, she tried to get to him, calling him to come back. She tripped over a rock underneath the water and nearly drowned.

She woke up, laying onshore. The boy she had been desperately calling out to, the one with dark eyes, helping her get up. Before leaving, he whispers unknown words into her ear and disappears into the sea.

Now 17, Gwen returns back to her home by the sea to help her Nana run their family inn. While she helps her Nana, and with the Midsummer solstice coming around, Gwen must face her destiny, and find out the answer that lays hidden behind the boy she had met 7 years ago, and the words he had whispered into her ear that faithful night.

Also another astonishingly heart-warming book. While reading, there were times when the events in the book seemed to stray from what the story was trying to get to, and it got confusing since there wasn't much information on some of the things that happen, or even some of the characters. Overall, it's a wonderful book.
