Isla can barely keep her head above water: she's an overworked, underpaid receptionist at a massive corporation, and she's teaching late-night swimming lessons to make ends meet. One night, Isla discovers an unfamiliar man drowning in the pool, and she's the only person present to save him—too bad he's her boss and CEO, and he strictly forbids his employees from taking on extra work.



After a stressful rescue, Isla expects to be fired on the spot, when instead he asks her to be his private swim coach! At first she's nervous, and frightened by his reputation for being ruthless and cold, but the more time they spend together, the more she realizes her perception of him could have been wrong.



Can she teach him to swim, when no one else has ever been able to help him conquer his fear? More importantly, who is the real Noah; the cold, stony business tycoon, or the thoughtful, trusting swim student? Isla better find out quickly, or BOTH her careers could sink!
