Dakota Berry is the new girl to Outer Banks of North Carolina. The 16-year-old is also new to the whole Pogues versus Kooks world. When she arrives, because of her rich status she is immediately placed as a Kook, catching the eye of Mr. Kook king himself, Topper. However, Dakota has her eyes set on a different set of people. The Pogues, or how they are described in other stories-the outsiders. JJ, Kiara, and Pope; a group of friends with strong minds. Dakota is immediately drawn to their living free lifestyle and what they stand for. Little do they know; Dakota already knows about them. Now Dakota must figure out how to gain trust from the three Pogues as she has important information about two of their friends-since she is from Nassau, Bahamas. Let's hope she doesn't fall for one of the Pogues while doing so.
