Beneath the Surface, A Deadly Secret Waits...

Underwater photographer Kimo Kekoa has spent her life exploring Hawaii's mysterious depths and chasing the beauty of bioluminescent life. But one fateful night dive changes everything when she and her assistant stumble across an abandoned shipping container-and human remains drifting in the dark. When her assistant is kidnapped and all evidence vanishes, Kimo is left with nothing but a terrifying memory... and a target on her back.

Enter Rex Johnson-a former Delta Force operator from a powerful family he's long since walked away from. Sent by the Brotherhood Protectors, Rex thinks he's just there to guard a stubborn scientist. But Kimo is more than she seems-and the threat they're diving into runs deeper than either of them imagined.

As danger closes in and their unlikely partnership heats up, Kimo and Rex must race to uncover a deadly trafficking ring hidden beneath paradise. Trust doesn't come easy. Love comes even harder. But if they can't learn to lean on each other, they'll both end up lost to the tide.

Heart-pounding suspense, smoldering romance, and tropical peril collide in this gripping novel set against the lush, lethal beauty of Hawaii's shores.
