Summary
Kevin thought the ocean was the only thing that could ever want him back.
After another night spiralling through shame, loneliness, and the crushing emptiness of celebrity, he walks into the sea fully expecting to disappear. Instead, he's dragged back to shore by Brooke McClellan-a stubborn marine conservationist who sees him as a person before she ever sees him as The Deep.
Now Kevin is trying to learn how to exist outside of The Deep. Brooke is trying to save a dying coastline. And somewhere between midnight dives, beach cleanups, awkward coffee conversations, and secrets that could ruin everything, they start building something terrifyingly real.
But you can only pretend to be normal for so long when the ocean itself knows your name.
