Into the Tide

She’s my best friend’s little sister. Completely off-limits. But every man has his breaking point.

Lila James is my best friend’s little sister and I’ve always looked out for her.
She's five years younger than me, and when she left for college, she was just a kid.
But now she’s home for the summer—and she’s definitely not a kid anymore.
She’s beautiful and smart and everything I didn’t know I needed.
Dark eyes. Long wavy hair. And legs that are meant to be wrapped around me.
I'm the guy who likes to have a good time.
Keep things light.
When her brother asks me to hire her at my restaurant, it's a no-brainer.
There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for her.
Until she asks me for one more favor.
She wants me to be her first.
Take her V-card.
Go where no man has gone before.
Her words, not mine.
And damn if I don’t want to go there more than I’ve ever wanted anything.
She's only here for the summer, and she says it will be our secret.
It’s temporary.
We’ll go back to being just friends at the end of summer.
She promises that she won’t fall for me.
She knows better.
But Lila isn’t the one I'm worried about.

** spoiler alert **
           Ngl, I was weirded out about Hugh feeling these things about Lila all while insisting she’s like a sister to him. But like, can’t also blame Lila for that skinny dipping night because daaaamn Mr Hugh!!! 

This was such a good read. Steamy and sweet and makes you want to see Hugh and just know why he’s the talk of town!

brother's best friend/best friend's little sister in a small town setting — SIGN ME UP!!!

This is my first LP book and it definitely did not disappoint! I may have read this trope multiple times, but the butterflies just hit the right places! LP knows how to capture her readers with swoony and sexy characters! It's a great introduction to the entire Reynolds clan! I am completely in love with that grecian god aka Hugh! I think I'm jealous of Lily, but at the same time I'm so happy she found the love of her life in Hugh! Hahahaha She hit the jackpot on her first try! Wink wink

“He kissed me like it was the first time. He kissed me like it was the last time. He kissed me like it was forever.” 🌊🩷🌊🩷

She’s my best friend’s little sister. Completely off-limits. But every man has his breaking point…🫠🔥😬

Lila and Hugh — OH MY GOODNESS! They are pure spice! The tension is turned up high and when it finally starts to break — Whew 😅 it’s HOTTTT 🌶️🔥 Their story is incredibly sweet. Hugh helps her through so much even though Lila is very independent and doesn’t ever ask for anything. 

THINGS I ABSOLUTELY LOVED: the sibling group text, the COVE scene, the SNOW DAY LIST, their nicknames! 🩷
