Now she's the tide. ✦ One summer, Isadora Rhodes lost everything- her father, her place in the world, and the boy who once swore he'd never let her go. And no one asked where she went when she left. Now she's back in Mariner's Reach. The waves haven't changed. The secrets have only gotten better at hiding. Then a letter shows up in her mailbox: ❝Your father trusted the wrong man with his life. I did too. Don't drown.❞ - As Izzy starts pulling at the threads, everything unravels- Her sister is wearing the life she left behind. The boy who once called her Hurricane is kissing someone else under her family's roof. And someone is doing everything they can to keep the truth buried where the tide can't reach. But Izzy's not the same girl who left last summer. And this time, she's not leaving without answers. Or wreckage. ✦ Welcome to Mariner's Reach. Nothing stays buried here. And some secrets sink slowly.

Madison is a reserved girl with a comfortable yet uneventful life back home. She has good grades, a loving sister, and a father who's intent on her living her life to the fullest. But as soon as she arrives in Portland, thousands of miles away from her safety net, she's caught off guard by Archer, her new housemate. With his intimidating brown eyes, clipped replies, and mysterious demeanour, Archer is bound to wreak a little havoc whether she wants him to or not. He doesn't want her to pick up the pieces of his broken self as many have tried and she doesn't plan on upending her new life for a boy who won't even spare her a glance. Over time and amidst the various little white lies and destructive mistakes, they continue to hide their feelings. She wishes to protect her newfound friendships and he wishes to battle his demons alone. He'll promise her he needs her when no one's around to hear then insist there isn't anything between them when suspicions start to raise. Faced with situations she could only dream of and challenges she thought she'd never overcome; she has to hold herself together while her world crumbles around her. Will Madison throw caution to the wind and risk losing everything for someone who wouldn't do the same for her?
