About this ebook

My grandparents’ grumpy neighbor is as hot as the lethal Florida sun. And like the sun, he’s bad for me. My taste in men is the worst—just ask my ex and his restraining order.


What am I doing in Florida with my grandparents, you wonder? Well, my best friend is an octopus, and he needs a bigger tank, so I took a job at an aquarium in the Sunshine State.


I didn’t expect that sexy, long-haired grump to try to buy my octopus for some nefarious purpose. Nor did I expect to make out with him during a late-night swim at the beach.


And the last thing I expected was to run into him on my first day at my new job… where he’s my boss.


NOTE: This is a standalone, raunchy, slow-burn romantic comedy featuring a sun-phobic marine biologist, her scorching hot grump of a boss, and an octopus who likes to go on walks in his mobile tank. If any of the above is not your cup of tea, run far, far away. Otherwise, buckle in for a laugh-out-loud, feel-good ride.

I truly enjoyed this fun and steamy, tongue in cheek romance. Olive and Oliver had me laughing out loud, basking in the heat and relishing the feels. The story was cute, quirky and funny and that makes this book a great choice for when you just want to escape the real world and relax. At least it did the trick for me. I am freely posting an objective review.

I have read all of the Hyman sisters series and this is my favorite. Olive and her love of octopuses and sunblock mean we have much in common. She's wacky which I love but not nearly as much as some of her sisters. Oliver is just wacky enough to be fun. I love that about him. When you meet your person you know. All their wackiness just adds to the adventure and this story is a fantastic one!. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I loved this creative adult romantic comedy which tells the hilarious and steamy story of Olive and Oliver who are both marine biologists. Add in her quirky family, an ex-boyfriend, a wiener dog named Tofu, and Beaky the octopus and you have all the makings for a laugh out loud adventure. I highly recommend this well written and imaginative book with its amazing characters, fun self talk, witty banter, and humor.

About the author

We love writing humor (often the inappropriate kind), happy endings (both kinds), and characters quirky enough to be called oddballs (because… balls).
