I came home to forget the ocean. To forget what it took from me. Surfing used to be everything, until it became the thing I couldn’t survive. Now, I’m stuck in my hometown, dodging questions, helping my twin sister by looking after my niece. All the while, pretending I’ve got a plan. A hookup app was supposed to be just a distraction. Nothing serious. But then I met Foxx. He’s smart, serious and hot as hell. I swiped right without knowing he’d wreck me in the best possible way. After my divorce, I built a life I could manage. It was quiet, structured and safe. Numbers always made sense to me hence my job as a math Professor. People though? Not so much. Especially not flirty blond surfers who crash into my life with too many secrets and no right to make me feel this alive. I told myself it was just one night. But Finn pulls me out of my head in ways I haven’t let anyone do in years. And when I realize he’s not just a hookup, but one of my students in my night classes? The line I swore I wouldn’t cross blurs fast and I’m caught up in a riptide.
