Summary
“Patti Murin skillfully narrates this engaging romance, capturing a wide range of emotions…Murin deftly adapts her narration to match the shifts in tone.”—AudioFile

It’s a thin line between love and love-hating in the newest laugh out loud, all the feels rom-com by New York Times bestselling author Katherine Center.

Katie Vaughn has been burned by love in the past—now she may be lighting her career on fire. She has two choices: wait to get laid off from her job as a video producer or, at her coworker Cole’s request, take a career-making gig profiling Tom “Hutch” Hutcheson, a Coast Guard rescue swimmer in Key West. The catch? Katie’s not exactly qualified. She can’t swim—but pretends that she can.

Plus, Cole and Hutch are brothers. And they don’t get along. Next stop: paradise! But paradise is messier than it seems. As Katie gets entangled with Hutch (the most scientifically good-looking man she has ever seen . . . but maybe a bit of a love hater), along with his colorful aunt Rue and his rescue Great Dane, she gets trapped in a lie. Or two.

Swim lessons, helicopter flights, conga lines, drinking contests, hurricanes, and stolen kisses ensue—along with chances to tell the truth, to face old fears, and to be truly brave at last.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Katherine Center's plots and characters are fresh (no tired tropes). Patti Murin's narration is perfect, really on point with the characters. I'll listen to anything she reads. I hope Ms. Center's next book is coming soon.

A wonderful kick in the pants romance. Katie and Hutch had great moments together. Their relationship was built in a natural, fun way. Katie has a lot of self-love challenges. It’s dealt with in a nice way that it doesn’t feel like self-help. The whole story was marvelous— a clean romance done right.
