Skinny Dipping by Alicia M. Kaye

Sophie had a near death(water) experience as a child, and has a fear of water. Now grown and successful (advertising executive) she doesn't think about her past , until she meets a client Matthew, he owns swimming centers. Soon they become friends, and he insists she learn to swim. There are definitely sparks between the too, but she has the fear of water, and scars from a past relationship. She will have to put all this aside in order to move forward in her personal life.

A fun original story with a great plot, laugh out loud moments, as well as romance. Sophie, is very likable flaws an all. She has definitely has personal issues that haunt her. Matthew is likable as well and watching their friendship bloom was exciting. I highly recommend Skinny Dipping to those who love a great read.… (mehr)
