Only the second woman to be admitted into the elite U.S. Coast Guard Rescue Swimmers, Cara O'Malley returns to her home in Cape May Point, New Jersey, upon her retirement after twenty years of service in the Guard. Incessant humiliating sexual harassment by her superior officers has saddled her with a severe case of PTSD. She has been diagnosed with a case of androphobia. Terrifying nightmares and violent flashbacks haunt her.
By chance, after twenty years of separation, Cara meets her childhood best friend, Eric Whilldin, on the beach, during her rescue of a drowning fisherman from his sinking boat. While the old friends get to know one another again, their former bond deepens into a romantic connection that for Cara both afflicts and attracts her. To move emotionally closer to Eric she must struggle with overcoming her androphobia and simultaneously deal with her first sexual desire for a man. Their attempts to consummate their relationship meet with disaster after disaster until Eric's steadfastness leads her to a discovery of herself.
