15 Days With You

A mothers dying wish. A son in search of answers. A fifteen-day surf odyssey with the California girl who will dare him to rethink everything.

Alone after his mothers unexpected death, seventeen-year-old Shep leaves Texas to crash with his uncles family in Malibu. Before he can hang his cowboy hat, Shep learns something that blows his mind--in her youth, his hard-working single mom was a gifted surfer on her way to international fame. And her dying wish was for him to recreate the surf tour she completed when she was eighteen--the summer she got pregnant with him.

Along with his cousin Carmen (the red-blooded competitive surfer) and her best friend Samantha (the opinionated and mildly annoying beach goddess), Shep hits the road for a surf trip up and down Pacific Coast Highway. Armed with his mothers ashes and fifteen sealed envelopes--each containing a page from her high school diary--Shep will discover a new side of the complex woman hed only thought of as Mom, and might finally learn the identity of a man hes never met--his father.

But each time he paddles out into the waves, a nagging question haunts him--the one he may not be ready to answer: Is he learning to surf because he wants to honor his mothers dying wish, or running from the real reason he cant go back to Texas--his own terrible mistake?
