About The Love Haters:
Katie Vaughn has been burned by love in the past—now she may be lighting her career on fire. She has two choices: wait to get laid off from her job as a video producer or at her coworker Cole’s request take a career-making gig profiling Tom “Hutch” Hutcheson a Coast Guard rescue swimmer in Key West. The catch? Katie’s not exactly qualified. She can’t swim—but pretends that she can.
Plus Cole and Hutch are brothers. And they don’t get along. Next stop: paradise! But paradise is messier than it seems. As Katie gets entangled with Hutch (the most scientifically good-looking man she has ever seen . . . but maybe a bit of a love hater) along with his colorful aunt Rue and his rescue Great Dane she gets trapped in a lie. Or two.
Swim lessons helicopter flights conga lines drinking contests hurricanes and stolen kisses ensue—along with chances to tell the truth to face old fears and to be truly brave at last.
