Part of Wild Seasons
First published 2016
London Hughes has built a comfortable life after college. She surfs in the mornings, works the bar at night, and keeps things loose and low-stakes with her tight circle of friends. No five-year plan, no pressure. Then one morning a wave sends her tumbling, and that same evening Luke Sutter turns on the charm and sends her off course in a different way. He is handsome, easy, and obviously experienced at this. London tells herself it is just one night. Luke has been running on autopilot through a string of hookups for long enough that he stopped asking himself why. One night with London changes that. He wants to slow down. He wants more. The problem is the past. London and Luke both carry history into whatever this is becoming, and when London finds out exactly who Luke has been involved with before, the situation lands squarely in the category of complicated she works hard to avoid. Luke has to decide whether he is willing to change, and London has to decide whether change is enough. The fourth book in the Wild Seasons series from Christina Lauren, authors of The Unhoneymooners and Love and Other Words.
