Love's high tide: Contemporary Beach Romance

Vacation romance. Small-town outsider. Secret bet.

When enemies-to-lovers energy collides with boy-falls-first regret, will love sink... or swim?

Skye Taylor is done with summer flings, smooth-talking tourists, and broken hearts—especially the kind that roll into Huntington Beach and disappear with the tide. As the owner of a local surf shop, she’s sworn off anyone who isn’t here to stay.

Then Harley Nicholson walks in.

He’s cocky.

Devastatingly handsome.

And completely wrong for her.

He’s also from Idaho. Temporary. Charming. Everything Skye promised herself she’d avoid.

When Harley spots her carving through the waves near the Huntington Beach Pier, he’s instantly hooked.

A surfing lesson turns into moonlit walks.

Dinner dates turn into stolen kisses.

And three short weeks begin to feel like forever.

But Skye doesn’t know Harley is hiding a secret.

One that starts as a reckless bet with his cousin... and ends in betrayal.

When the truth comes out, Skye’s heart shatters—and Harley realizes too late that he’s risking the one woman he never meant to lose.

Now he’ll have to prove his feelings are real.

That this was never just another summer fling.

Perfect for fans of short, steamy beach romances with heart.
