Brittany's whole family died in a tragic accident. She is mourning their loss with her friend Amma. Amma and Brittany met at grief counseling. Amma lost her boyfriend. They are traveling the world and grieving their losses.
When they get to the island Jake and Eliza are already there. Jake and Eliza have recently reconnected after a long separation. They're working on rekindling a romance that died many years ago.
There is not a single likeable character in the book. Every time that you start to cheer for someone a new dark secret comes out that makes them unlikeable again. Easily readable, but probably easily forgetable to.

The book really didn’t even get rolling until there was only like 40 pages left and everything happened SO QUICKLY. Nothing was fleshed out and it felt so disjointed. Like it was an entirely different book I’d just stumbled into.
First like 70% was 5 stars. The ending was like 1 star. So here we are at a 4.
