In Deep

Original author: Terra Elan McVoy
In Deep

SYNOPSIS:
Swim.
Push.
Breathe.
Swim.

Nothing else matters to Brynn as she trains her body and mind to win. Not her mediocre grades and lack of real friends at school. Not the gnawing grief over her fallen hero father. Not the strained relationship with her absent mother and clueless stepdad. In the turquoise water, swimming is an escape and her ticket to somewhere—anywhere—else. And nothing will get in her way of claiming victory.

But when the competitive streak follows Brynn out of the pool in a wickedly seductive cat-and-mouse game between herself, her wild best friend, and a hot new college swimmer, Brynn’s single-mindedness gets her in over her head, with much more than a trophy to lose.

WHY SHOULD YOU CHECK IT OUT?
With a female athlete at the helm of this story, we were drawn in by the swimming—because it’s summer, and we want to be at the pool!—but we stuck around for the idea of a fallen hero father and Brynn’s less than awesome relationships with her mom and stepdad. Romance will play a part in this one, but that’s not what we’re diving in for!

The cover has us hoping that there’s a bit of a mystery involved, as who can look at a pool like that without thinking something—or someone—might end up sitting at the bottom of it? It is a calming, peaceful, and eerie scene.

This is a companion novel to author Terra Elan McVoy’s THE SUMMER OF FIRSTS AND LASTS. If you want to catch up on where Brynn was before this, check it out!
