Surf & Tour: A Sweet Romance Beach Read Novel - Old Friends to Lovers

She’s a champion surfer terrified of the water. He’s a broken surfboard shaper who has sworn off love. Can a little holiday magic heal them both?

Champion surfer Nikki Young hasn’t stepped foot in the ocean since a near-fatal drowning accident a year ago. Desperate to fund her dream of opening her own physical therapy clinic, she flies to Hawaii over Christmas to compete in a high-stakes scenic video contest. She’s determined to win the prize money, but to do it, she’ll have to face the very waters that almost took her life.

Surfboard designer Julian Vaughn is facing his own wipeout. A severe injury has sidelined him from shaping boards, and months of therapy have yielded zero results. Worse, his heart is still reeling from a devastating betrayal, leaving him completely guarded and entirely done with romance.

When a spunky fourteen-year-old matchmaker forces the two together, they instantly recognize each other as old high school crushes. Soon, an unexpected partnership forms: Nikki offers her therapeutic expertise to help Julian heal, while Julian guides Nikki to the island’s most breathtaking, hidden locations for her film.

As they spend the holidays under the Hawaiian sun, old sparks reignite into something deeper. But Julian is terrified of getting hurt again, and Nikki is running out of time before she has to fly home. Can they find the courage to let go of the past, or will fear keep them stranded on the shore?
