Publisher's Synopsis
Dr. Samantha 'Sam' Smith and Luke Jansen have gotten under each other's skins since they met 10 years ago on the Royal Australian Naval base. They never thought they'd see each other again until their love of sharks brought them back together, giving their competitive and stubborn natures another chance to clash.Sam, marine biologist and shark specialist, recently landed her dream job with the aquatic research department at Miami University. When her mentor invites her on the expedition of a lifetime, she eagerly takes the bait. The goal: obtain coveted, groundbreaking footage of Great White sharks breeding.Unbeknownst to Sam, her mentor has invited one of the best shark experts in the business as well - a certain Aussie diver too arrogant and sexy for his own good. Luke, different after a life-changing diving accident, is the last person she expected to see.Sam and Luke's competitive streak picks up right where it left off as Sam realizes Luke knows almost as much about sharks as she does, despite her eight years of education. When a deep sea dive goes awry, Sam has to rely on Luke's experience, both with sharks and as a Navy Clearance Diver, to get her back on board alive and in one piece. To make matters worse, a reckless rival crew surfaces, determined to beat them to the punch. Amidst the adventure and exhilaration of the hunt, Sam and Luke ignite a passionate spark that they slowly realize may have been simmering all along. If they can make it through with the footage and their lives, they may just have a shot at Happily Ever After.*The character of Luke Jansen inspired by Paul de Gelder (Discovery's Shark Week) and his amazing story of survival and overcoming life's obstacles.
