Synopsis

“In the Shark Week of second-chance romances, Chandra Blumberg will have readers hungrily scavenging for every morsel of bait as she tempts with sultry tension and magnetic longing.” —Taj McCoy, award-winning author of Zora Books Her Happy Ever After

When two marine biologists with a complicated history are thrown together on a shark study broadcast over social media, it's anything but smooth sailing. This charming and sexy second chance romance is the perfect beach read for fans of Helen Hoang and Ali Hazelwood.

At first glance, Hope Evans just landed the perfect job: spending the summer on a shark research boat. Except as every marine biologist knows, it’s what’s going on beneath the surface that counts, and Hope’s new position comes with a big catch—the boat belongs to her ex-boyfriend, Adrian Hollis-Parker. For three years Hope’s been treading water, staying away from anything that reminds her of their past. It’s time to dive back into a job that could springboard her career—and maybe offer much-needed closure.

Since their split, Adrian has risen to internet fame as a shark expert with the launch of his YouTube channel to dispel myths and educate viewers about sharks. But success rings hollow without Hope. Embracing this new career trajectory was a risk, but working in cramped quarters with the woman he never stopped loving? That has the potential to backfire in heartbreaking ways.

Side by side, weathering storms of every kind, they’ll have to navigate the murky waters of past hurts…and hope it’s not too late to chart a new course…

Goodreads review by Kezia on September 07, 2024

3.5⭐️ I’m obsessed with the second-chance romance trope. Provided that one of them didn’t do something horrendous, I’m always so excited to see how they work themselves back into each other lives. I thought this was pretty interesting throughout, especially since it’s not every day I read about shark......more

3/5 - A cutesy story!! If you’re looking for a fluffy second chance romance, this one is a cute one. - The marine talk definitely took away from the romance because it felt like the focus of the story was more on their careers than their love story. This story was definitely a slow burn and felt reall......more

Goodreads review by Wobilba on November 07, 2024

Unfortunately i did not enjoy reading this book. The writing style was just not for it. I couldn't care less about these characters as hard as i tried. Their back and forth about their breakup gave me a whiplash. On top of that these two did not even have one drop of chemistry. Overall the story fel......more

Goodreads review by Ms. Woc Reader on September 25, 2024

This one was pretty boring. I felt too in their heads and both the fmc and mmc had the same exact voice! It was so much back and forth about why they should've never broken up. And the chemistry was tepid at best so shortly after they started working together again I found my interest waning.......more

This was such a fun second-chance romance I enjoyed reading it. The fmc is a marine biologist who loves everything shark and ocean-related while the mmc is a popular photographer who shares videos showcasing his love for sharks, science, and other marine life. They come together after the fmc finds......more
