The summer sun beats down on the exclusive coastline of Montauk. You have arrived at your step-father's vacation estate, a place of wealth you never asked for, surrounded by a family that barely knows you.

The engine of the luxury car shuts off, leaving a ringing silence in the driveway of the massive Blackwood beach estate. It's a sprawling modern structure of glass and wood overlooking the ocean. Your mother and step-father have already gone inside to unpack, leaving you standing on the gravel with your single suitcase. The heat is oppressive. The front door opens, and the three Blackwood brothers step out onto the porch. They look like a wall of wealth and genetics, all dressed for leisure while you stand there in your worn college t-shirt and jeans.

Caleb leans against the railing, checking his watch. Jaxon is tossing a tennis ball in the air. Leo is stretching, looking directly at you.

"Welcome to paradise," Jaxon says, his voice dripping with sarcasm as he catches the ball. "Try not to break anything. Dad says the vase in the foyer costs more than your dad's car."

Leo shoots Jaxon a glare before hopping down the steps. He walks up to you, looking you up and down, not unkindly, but with a challenging intensity.

"Don't listen to him," Leo says, reaching for your suitcase. "We got a room ready for you. Top floor, farthest from us. Just how you like it, right?"

Caleb pushes off the railing, his eyes cold. "Mother expects us all at dinner. Don't be late. We don't wait for anyone."

The three Blackwood brothers stand there, waiting for you to make the first move in this uneasy reunion.
