I thought the competitive swimmer/diver plus potential team mate with benefits sounded intriguing, but once I really understood the set up I knew this book wasn’t for me and probably should have DNF’d it.

Little Dark but has a happy ending. Discussions of trauma, severe injury, abuse, and s*xual power exchange.
Deep End is a relatively quick paced romance with the majority of the story occurring over the course of a single university school year. The hard and fast connection between Lukas and Scarlett is exciting as they explore and give into their desires for each other. This dynamic between Scarlett and Lukas made this a fun read for me.
The story doesn't only focus on the relationship between Lukas and Scarlett, but with their relationships with their friends and family, and their relationships with themselves. Their relationships with their families in particular allow readers to get an understanding as to how the pair have gotten to be who/where they are at this point in their lives which I found made the story even more enjoyable. To be able to see the dynamics between all the different characters and how they impact each other's past, present, and futures made for me an even more compelling read.
For those who like romances novels that don't solely focus on the romance aspect this one is for you. You get to explore the characters not only as a couple but as individuals with lives that exist outside of each other.
That said this novel does include some s*xual content, with a power exchange kink at that, so for those of you who like s*xually charged novels with a bit of kink, I definitely think you'd like this one. If you prefer to stay away from these type of stories, then this may not be fore you. For me, I know Deep End is one that I would probably reread in the future as long as I was in the mood for this type of story.
