"H2O = hero + heroine + ...octopus?
A scheduling screw-up leaves meticulous marine biologist Isabel Wright and tattooed wildlife photographer Wes Monaghan stranded at the same California beach house.
She needs a U.S. visa-now. He needs a boat and a date to his family's holiday party. The solution? A fake engagement that turns eight levels of 'it's complicated' after they accidentally adopt joint custody of an octopus.
Can their agreement not to catch feelings survive sunset picnics, bioluminescent skinny-dipping, and a secret investigation into a shady ocean research lab?
Or will their charming cephalopod and their own hearts sucker Wes and Isabel into diving straight into love?"
"They're polar opposites. But their attraction is magnetic...
The rivalry between Dr Erin Monaghan and Dr Ethan Meyer is legendary in their prestigious physics lab. Each at the forefront of their opposing fields, they compete for everything: grant money, research time, government backing - and use of the office coffee machine.
But it's a basic law of nature that opposites attract, and sparks fly after a science fiction magazine pairs their work and they meet online as their creative alter egos.
Back at the lab, and forced to collaborate on a high-profile government contract, Erin and Ethan's sizzling virtual chemistry spills over into real life, threatening the project's success.
With their careers and hearts on the line, can the law of attraction finally win out?"
