I loved this book!! I really think i will listen to all of her books via audio!! i had such a great time. This book is super light hearted and fun read, very low spice but it also does handled harder topics giref and also body image issues. I thought this book was super unique and a very enagging and quick read. i thin think this might be a new favorite.

Enemies to Lovers plus this adorable cover? You had me hook, line, and sinker!
When video producer Katie Vaughn is offered a last-chance assignment profiling a heroic Coast Guard swimmer in Key West, she jumps at the chance to save her job. Despite having one (tiny) issue...she doesn't know how to swim. Thrown into a vibrant, chaotic world, Katie quickly becomes tangled in a web of secrets. Did I mention the Coast Guard is her boss's brother? Katie finds herself at a crossroads: will she finally face her fears, tell the truth, and take a leap into love? You'll have to read to find out!
Rounded down from a 3.5! This book had some great moments, but ultimately left me wanting more. Let's start with the good: the banter was incredible, the mishaps were hilarious (especially George Bailey, IYKYK), and Rue was an absolute gem. But what fell short for me was the lack of chemistry between the two main characters. Insta-love doesn't work for me, and this one sometimes felt a little rushed. There were also a few side plots and characters that felt completely unnecessary - did we really need the day-by-day drinking schedule of the crazy boss? And while the ending went with the plot, I was hoping for a callback to the Burma-Shave reference at the beginning, maybe with Hutch giving Katie her own rhyme?! Sigh - still cute and easy read!
Be sure to check trigger warnings, as there are themes of body image insecurity, losing family members, and illnesses.
