Deep End by Ali Hazelwood

5.0

Oh my goodness did I freaking love this book. My bestie told me she read it and then did the audio because she loved it so much and I GET IT. I want to do the same and just live in this little world Luk and Scarlett inhabit. 

Scarlett is a junior platform diver who's pre-med at Stanford. She has been battling a mental block for a while since she was injured diving. She has no time for anything until one random incident. Her captain Pen drunkenly suggests she should have BDSM sex with Luk, Pen's very recent ex boyfriend. Luk, a Swedish Olympic gold medalist and frankly the best swimmer in the world, is surprised but clearly interested. What Scarlett thinks will be nothing more than a physical arrangement quickly becomes a friendship that morphs into more. But how can she be with her best friend's ex? 

I dug Luk in this. 🔥🔥🔥 I even really loved Scarlett and the way she and Lukas seemed to just naturally get each other. You could tell it was a totally different relationship than what he had with Pen. I did NOT like her. I thought even before she showed her ugly that something wasn't wholly right with her. Bottom line... READ THIS.
