Selene Parish is a hard-working lawyer in need of a vacation. A legal conference in Key West, Florida, seems like the perfect combination of work-turned-vacation. When she arrives and everything seems to go wrong, she starts to wonder if she's doomed to have no fun at all. Luckily, she's already met Gilberte Martin, a former artist now living in the Keys who is willing to make all of Selene's wishes come true. Gilberte "Gil" Martin has never known where she would truly end up. A runaway at age sixteen and accidental cult movie maker at twenty-six, she's nearing her forties and still trying to understand how she came to live in the middle of a beautiful beach with amazing friends, a great boss, and a mentor queen down the street who showers her with love and affection. When she's invited to a tenth anniversary screening of her cult film, she figures the ghosts of her past might be over. She’s proven wrong almost immediately. The only thing that saves her trip is a casual run-in with another woman having an equally hard time with her travels.
