Love at the Shore

Ambitious and successful single mother Jenna Thompson, an author of young adult novels, faces a tight deadline of five weeks to complete her latest book for her publisher. This means her annual beach getaway with her children, Nick (Luke Loveless) and Ally (Reagan Shumate), will double as a working retreat. Upon reaching their destination, they encounter their new neighbor, the carefree and self-assured surfer Lucas McKinnon, who will be sharing the adjacent walls and patio with them for the next month. Lucas enjoys playing loud music at night, sleeping in, and letting his dog, Tank, roam freely. Jenna struggles to make progress on her novel, often attributing her writer’s block to Lucas’ noisy volleyball games and erratic schedule. However, as Lucas starts to form a connection with Nick and Ally, Jenna begins to notice a different side of him. One evening, when they share a dinner alone, both Jenna and Lucas start to view each other in a fresh and appealing way. The film stars Amanda Righetti and Peter Porte.
