A young witch who has been bitten by love before. A drop-dead gorgeous vampire who likes to live wild. Could a summer fling help them get over their hangups about love? Brie has to make up for all the classes that she missed when she was sneaking off to meet her mermaid girlfriend, so she’s stuck in summer school.

With a seasonal pass, she can go on roller coasters and watch free concerts on the beach every night. The vampires at the Boardwalk are harmless because it’s illegal for them to feed on people.
