Enemies-to-lovers and forced proximity collide in this sizzling romantic comedy set on a lush tropical island.
Linc Salinger and I have nothing in common. He’s a smooth PR executive; I’m his disciplined office rival.
And he’s just stolen the project I’ve been working on for months.
After tough negotiation I manage to bargain my way back on, but there’s a catch. We have to travel to a tropical island and present to the client together.
Sharing a beach cottage with only one bed, we plan to stay professional. But the island’s magic starts to thaw our animosity, sparking unexpected chemistry. Every laugh and touch intensifies our connection.
It’s obvious there’s no future between us.
He’s a confirmed player. And I’m a single mom with a teenage daughter and a home that’s falling down around us.
So I make a bargain with myself. A few nights of pleasure in paradise and then we’ll head back to New York and pretend this never happened.
We can go back to being at each other’s throats the way we always have.
The only problem is, Linc doesn’t seem to get the office memo…

Another Salinger brother finds the one!! I absolutely love how each brother has truly had a unique personality that shined through each page. And the women they fall in love with are just as special in their own ways. Each couple has been perfectly tailored to find balance, harmony, and a deep love. Lincoln and Tessa were no exception to this — I absolutely adore them!
Linc has always been more of the elusive brother. We have seen the glimpses of him be the image he portrayed to the world, but to see Linc become vulnerable and his true self — it’s such a gift! From his interactions with his brothers to the relationship he develops with Tessa’s daughter, Zoe, I was constantly laughing. The moments with Tessa were full of angst in the beginning that transitioned into an incredible love that I couldn’t stop swooning over!
Tessa is sassy — and I LOVED it! She has a lot of reason to be as it’s not only a defense mechanism but also a fun part of her personality once you get past the baggage that comes from a jerk of an ex and a traumatic childhood experience. Although I see her as such a strong, independent woman, it’s nice to see how she learns to accept the good and safe that Linc provides. Her vulnerability is what truly helps her grow throughout the book.
Absolutely another hit for the series! I’m excited to see how Brooks finally finds what his brothers have!
