When Ronnie gets to her dads she goes to the beach and meets a guy named Will who is a well known volleyball player. She also met Blaze while she was cleaning soda off her shirt. Blaze's parents were also divorced. Ronnie quickly learns that there is a nest of sea turtles, a species that is endangered. Will volunteers at the local aquarium so he helped her. She stayed outside the nest all night making sure that no raccoons would eat them. Later in the novel Ronnie discovers that her father has cancer.

Page 108 line 8:

The sun was hanging low over the ocean, and a few people were walking their jogs or jogging near the water’s edge. No doubt they’d slept in beds.”
