❝You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to face them.❞
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
After wiping out on the waves and spending the last six months in a physical therapy centre recovering, pro-surfer Thalia Monroe, heads to the small coastal town of Sandy Cove to escape the limelight. Still recovering mentally from her near-death experience, getting back on the waves has not come back to her as easy as she hoped.
Maybe all it takes to get back on the board is a local, Atlas Hayes, who wants to show her that maybe the strength she's been looking for has been there all along. One thing Thalia wasn't expecting was that falling in love is like surfing a wave, it's an adrenaline rush that can throw you ten feet under.

Treading Water
Treading Water In Driftwood Cove, Australia, the Monroe siblings aren't just surviving-they're barely keeping their heads above water. Effie Monroe, 15, is loud, chaotic, and stubbornly wild, her sandy-blonde hair salt-streaked from hours surfing the ocean that raised her better than any parent did. Her older brothers-Noah (20), Jude (22), Silas (24), and Kai (26)-are more like co-conspirators than guardians, all rough edges and soft hearts, fiercely protective and even fiercer with each other. Orphaned by life and anchored only by each other, the Monroes have turned their weather-beaten beach house into a sanctuary where chaos is sacred, surfing is survival, and family is everything. In Driftwood Cove, being fifteen still makes you a kid, eighteen barely makes you an adult, and growing up is something you do with sand in your teeth and salt in your veins. But summer's coming in fast-with tourists, trouble, and new chances to screw everything up or get it just right. And sometimes, treading water is the only way to keep from drowning.Lengkap

Digi's summer plan was simple: work at her family's restaurant, hang out with friends, and stay out of trouble before senior year. Then Beck showed up. She didn't know he existed a month ago, and now - after accidentally texting the wrong number - he was everywhere. On the beach she's claimed as her own. In her parent's restaurant. At family events he had no reason to be at. And every time they cross paths, he managed to pull a little more of her world into his. What started as an accidental encounter turns into late-night conversations, shared secrets, and a connection Digi can't explain - or shake, despite how hard she tries.

His Side of the Bed
I came to Seafall Lodge to escape. From my past. From him. From the version of myself I swore I'd never become again. But then he happened. Jax Monroe is everything I promised myself I wouldn't touch-tattoos, trouble, and a smile that makes girls ruin their reputations. We're nothing alike. I'm trying to rebuild. He's trying to survive. We were never supposed to meet. We were definitely never supposed to share a room. And yet every night, we fall asleep on opposite sides of the bed. Until his hand finds mine. Until his lips find my skin. Until his side becomes the only place I feel safe-even when everything about him is a warning. This summer was supposed to be a clean break. But the deeper I fall, the more I realize: some boys don't just take your heart. They take your bed. And if you're not careful... they take you with them.Lengkap
