About Sunk in Love. . .
Roslyn and Liam met nine years ago and have been the perfect couple ever since. Through every up and down, every milestone—from Liam’s residency to the publication of Roslyn’s debut romance—they’ve been each other’s rocks. Until now.
Pulled apart by the untimely death of Roslyn’s mom and the undertow of grief, they’re now navigating the final wave in their marriage: divorce.
Heartbroken and unsure how to tell her family she’s called it quits with everyone’s favorite son-in-law, Roslyn keeps the impending divorce a secret. But when Roslyn’s grandparents ask if Liam can officiate their vow renewal ceremony aboard a Hawaiian cruise during their annual vacation, Roslyn needs to tell the truth or figure out a way to keep her secret. A week trapped at sea with her ex isn’t ideal, but neither Roslyn nor Liam want to rock the boat, so they concoct a plan—they’ll fake it.
After five years of marriage, they can figure out how to pretend for jungle hikes and mai tais, right? But when reality and make-believe start to blur, and old feelings begin to resurface, Roslyn and Liam have to decide whether it’s sink or swim for their marriage.
Praise for Sunk in Love. . .
“Soul-nourishing, red-hot, and fiercely intimate. Sunk in Love features a marriage in peril with realistic, heart-crushing obstacles and a gorgeously earned HEA — a seemingly impossible feat to pull off, and yet it feels utterly flawless. Heather McBreen has a forever fan in me.”
—Rachel Lynn Solomon, New York Times bestselling author of What Happens in Amsterdam
“My absolute favorite kind of romance is second chance, and Heather McBreen delivers a delicious one with Sunk in Love. I rooted for Roslyn and Liam to find their way back to one another, savored every tender (and steamy!) moment between them, and then cheered out loud when they finally stepped into their beautifully earned happily ever after. Second chance lovers like me will devour this!”
—Jessica Joyce, USA Today bestselling author of The Ex-Vows
“Heather McBreen has set the gold standard with her sophomore novel, Sunk in Love. In this steamy second chance romance, McBreen expertly explores how love can help us find ourselves again after loss, all while delivering the same witty banter and delightful hijinks that made her debut so addictive. An absolute must read for all romance lovers!”
—Amy Buchanan, author of Let’s Call a Truce
Heather McBreen currently lives in Seattle, WA, but spent the best year of her life living in London where she completed an MA degree in arts and cultural management. When she's not writing or reading books about kissing, she can be found surfing the web for travel deals and plotting her next adventure. Wedding Dashers is her debut novel.
USA Today bestselling author Jo Segura lives in the Pacific Northwest with her doggo, who vies for her attention with his sweet puppy dog eyes whenever she’s trying to write. Her stories feature strong, passionate heroines and draw upon aspects of her life, such as her Mexican heritage and her fascination with archaeology. When she’s not writing you can find her practicing law, shaking up a mean cocktail, or sitting out on the patio doing Buzzfeed quizzes (though she doesn’t care what the chicken nugget quiz said–her favorite fruit is not banana).
