SYNOPSIS:
Everyone in Sandy Cove knows that Willow Taylor and Max Vincent are like oil and
water. They live to torment one another and if they survive being in the same room together, it’s nothing short of a miracle. Sure, Willow is rich, blonde and beautiful and Max is an achingly hot and talented up and coming rock star—but that just makes it easier for them to hate one another!
Until one night. One drunken night. It was just supposed to be a night of celebration after each of their best friends’, Harlow and Cruz, were reunited. But a few hours of civility leads to one night of unbridled, earth-shattering, cataclysmic sex. It doesn’t help that the details are sketchy in their minds because the off-the-charts after effects still linger. One thing is clear…that night changed everything.
From that moment on, sabotaging each other’s hook-ups was their primary goal until a truce is made. A pact. No strings attached, no feelings, just more of what their bodies crave whenever they see one another. They both get what they want and no one gets hurt.
Until someone does. Until love and tragedy gets in the way. The heat between Willow and Max is undeniable but will that spark of desire be enough to sustain them through the pain and heartache that threatens them?

From page one Willow and Max had quick comebacks and snarky remarks. But then again what do you say to the one person that annoys you the most after finding out you had drunken sex with them?
“I’m sure my dick and I treated you nicely last night. I haven’t heard any complaints thus far.”
“Ugh. Gross. I can’t even wrap my head around this, your dick is the last thing I want to think about.”
Soon their antics increased and they reverted to blocking each other with the opposite sex. It’s seems there was some unfinished business between these two. So what do they do? Have sex sober?
“Wills, I got this. Let’s not resort to violence towards my balls or any other part of my male anatomy. Whatever this was between us was just a matter of a ways and means. I was the way and you were the means.”
Willow and Max had a love/hate relationship; I hate you but love to rip your clothes off. So they come to an agreement to only have sex with each other for the summer.
While with the gang they return back to their snarky comments but in the confines of the bedroom they heat up the sheets with their sexual chemistry. It’s their little secret the times they spend alone.
Everything seems to be going well in Sandy Cove until an opportunity arises that Max can’t let pass up. He’s going on tour for a month. Now there’s feelings in the mix and neither know what they are. So they decide to end their deal. But then there’s the kiss that changes and confuses things more.
They talk and video chat daily while Max is gone. Things slowly progress and change; these two seem to mature and grow. They learn things they never knew about the other.
“For the first time in my life I think I know what it feels like. Love. Being in it. My explanation of it: when you can’t stand being away from the person.”
Suddenly tragedy strikes and they are thrown together but when true feelings are revealed hearts are broken. Someone needs to step up their game or they may lose their future.
Excerpt From Max-
Stumbling In-The Shore Series Book 3
I go to her and place my hand on her shoulder, and she turns around and I’m faced with the most unexpected thing that I think has ever happened. Willow turns around and grabs handfuls of my shirt and pulls me to her soft, wanting lips. She kisses me, and it’s just not a kiss that breathes lust but it breathes the fire of passion, of meaning. It makes my hair stand on end and leaves the skin beneath electrified. The soft motion of her mouth with mine, the scent of her hair and the taste of her tongue dancing inside my mouth, spins me into oblivion. There’s more to this kiss. I feel it in my bones. I feel it in my soul. She kisses me like we are music. We are the rhythm joining together with the notes and the melody. I grasp the back of her head and thread my fingers in her hair softly. I deepen the kiss and I reach the point where I swim in this moment so deep that I don’t want to come to the surface… and that’s when she pulls away and I know I’m fucked.
I’m so fucking fucked.
She holds her lips with her long, slender fingers. Her eyes find mine and I’m still lost in whatever that was. I can’t even ask her because I can’t even speak. It wasn’t the normal wanton kiss that happens between us when we just use each other. No, oh no, this was something else.
“Willow…” She holds up her hand to stop me.
“Let’s just leave it at that, Max.”
I walk past her slowly as I hear the relentlessness of the bus’s horn and slide open the door to her room. I turn around and she’s already back to leaning on the rail. Her body turned to the calm waters. The sun shines down on her bare, bronzed shoulders and the wind picks up and blows her hair around again. It’s the last time I’ll see her in person for a while and after that kiss, my head and something else right at this very moment doesn’t want it to be the last time. It’s not the right time to analyze what that kiss was. Maybe it was a goodbye kiss. A proper send off. The end of whatever we were to each other. Was it a blessing for me to go and see where it goes with Cora? What was that? I’ll tell you what it was. The unexpected.
“I’ll miss you, Willow.” Not being so sure she can hear me, I say it as I walk out the door. I leave her with my brain consisting of mush and my lips already feeling some sort of loss.
Most of all… a lot to think about.
