Dark forests, rogue waves, and pinned, brittle dragonflies. Someone's sure having nightmares. Could it be the hot rocker who doesn't believe in love? Or maybe it's the reluctant girl he can't seem to stay away from? And why the heck doesn't he notice all the people drooling in his direction? That's weird. And confusing. Well, at least one thing's clear. There is no way in hell they're meant to be together. Nope. That's just not possible...New York-based Alexander Brantsen, better known as Bran, is sure of just two things in life. You can’t rely on anyone. And love isn’t real. But with music and a wild surf to subdue his demons, he can cope with pretty much anything. Making a record with his band in Melbourne while hanging out at the Australian beaches? No problem. If he can somehow stop the record company’s uptight, little A&R Assistant from messing with his head, it’ll be a breeze.Ava would much rather curl up in bed with a book than dally with an arrogant musician, that is until she meets Silva’s drop dead gorgeous singer. He’s custom-built to set her heart racing and mash it into pulp. Working on their album is tolerable while Bran is in surly-snob mode, but things turn harrowing when he sets his brilliant blue sights on her, and for reasons he can’t even fathom, is unable to look away. After Ava ends their unlikely fling and Bran’s past crashes over him, he slips under the waves. But he’s fine. He doesn’t need help and he’s certainly not in love. To stop him drowning, it’s going to take a whole lot of bravery on both sides. The nightmares, the secret he holds close, and most frightening of all, their feelings for each other, must be faced.
