Before she even hears the words, Kaeldra already knows what she must do.  She must search out the mother dragon whose draclings have just hatched and some how get some of her precious milk.  It's the only way to save her foster-sister's life. Kaeldra would rather not go.  It's much too terrifying, much too dangerous.  But Kaeldra also knows that she's the only one who can do it.  For she is the only one who can actually communicate with dragons.

Paradise wasn't supposed to suck.

Not the state of being, but a resort in the Caribbean.  Jena, Dakota, Skye, and Owen are all there for different reasons, but at Paradise their lives become tangled together in ways none of them can predict.  Paradise will change them all.

It will change Jena, whose first brush with romance takes her that much closer to having a life, and not just reading about those infinitely cooler and more exciting.

It will change Dakota, who needs the devastating truth about his past to make him realize that he doesn't have to be a jerk just because people think he's one.

It will change Skye, a heartbreakingly beautiful actress, who must come to terms with the fact that for once she has to stop playing a role or face the consequences.

And it will change Owen, who has never risked anything before and who will take the leap from his online life to a real one all because of a girl he met at Paradise. . . .

From confused to confident and back again, one thing's certain: Four months after it all begins, none of them will ever be the same.
