Publisher Description
“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…

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Blumberg (Stirring up Love) makes marine biology sexy in this endearing second-chance romance. Hope Evans has always loved sharks, so much so that she's devoted her career to researching them. But following a professional setback and a devastating breakup from fellow shark researcher Adrian Hollis, she abandons her work. Three years later, the time may finally be right for her to get back in the water. When a promising summer job opens up, Hope seizes it—then learns that it will have her working closely with Adrian, who's now a celebrity of the shark conservation world thanks to his popular YouTube channel. Though resentment—and feelings—linger on both sides, the pair vow to keep things professional. But while working together in close quarters on a small boat, this proves easier said than done. Blumberg makes the will-they-won't-they dance believable and exciting with sexy banter and plenty of humor throughout. Readers will root for this intelligent couple to get their happily ever after.
