They were looking for different things in the deep, but found each other instead . . .
Aiden is a newcomer to the city, a guy who has spent his entire life waiting for a love that never arrived. In a world that feels too big and too loud, he's tired of being the one left behind. Convinced that his "forever single" status is a permanent fate, he heads to the cliffs with a heavy rock and a final plan to let the current take the weight off his shoulders.
Dean is a guy who knows the water better than the city streets. He's sharp, intuitive, and possesses a quiet intensity that hides how much he actually sees. When he pulls a drowning stranger onto his boat, he notices the rope tied to Aiden's ankles, but he's smart enough to keep his mouth shut. He pretends it was a diving accident, offering Aiden a dry towel and a way back to shore without the shame.
Dean is steady and protective, while Aiden is convinced he's beyond saving, but the chemistry between them is a force of nature. As Aiden gets caught in Dean's orbit, he realizes that the life he was ready to throw away might finally be getting interesting. In a city of millions, Dean is determined to show him that sometimes, the only thing more powerful than the urge to sink is the person who refuses to let you go.

This is a story about fated, soul-deep love that hits you when you least expect it. It's packed with magical, fluffy moments that'll make you kick your feet, but I've ofcourse, balanced it out with enough on-fire, steamy scenes to make you melt. At its heart, though, it's about finding a reason to live exactly when you've given up on it. I poured so much of myself into these two, and I really, truly hope you fall as hard for Dean and Aiden as I did.
