Kirstie Pelling: Sink or Swim, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

He's a fish out of water, she's fighting the current, but together will they Sink or Swim?

Her mind whirled like a tornado. Taking another look at Lu-Lu's smug face and massive diamond she made a decision.

'Actually, yours won't be the only wedding this summer,' she rushed in. 'Nic and I just got engaged.'

Arriving back in the quaint village of Inglemere, Aria thinks she's reclaiming her childhood home after her dad's untimely death. Resentful of her self-involved stepmother, and dodging her insufferable ex, Aria has no choice but to illegally move into the falling-apart fishing hut she's been left instead.

Enter Nic, a Greek property tycoon with a desperate plan to transform the untouched lake shore into a luxury haven for the rich. But when his development plans hit a snag, the only way forward is to convince the locals he's one of them.

With Aria's financial situation worsening, a deal with this handsome devil feels like her only option. As they navigate rapidly changing rules and their accelerating attraction to each other, they must confront their personal dilemmas before the landscape they are fighting over is destroyed.

This steamy small-town story is about how thin the line between love and hate is, and about discovering what - and who - makes a home.
