Diver's Heart by K.A. Knight
5.0
“True love isn’t just a myth or a chemical reaction… It’s everything. It’s her smile. It’s her laugh. It’s her bad days. It’s her good days. It’s her support, her passion, her strength. It’s her brain and her beauty. It’s her. Always has been. Always will be.”
“Sometimes the people are right, but the timing is wrong.” Peyton finds herself fleeing all she knew and loved after her boyfriend Tyler proposes to her, including their three best friends she also loves. Her new life sees her as a world-class diver at the height of her career and tasked with a new job mapping out caves. But an unexpected wrench is thrown into her path when she finds herself with the four men she has been running from as her partners on this mission. A lot can go wrong deep under water, and they find more than just the tension between them putting everything, even their lives, at risk.
A reverse harem thriller? I am immediately sold. Tyler is Peyton's ex-boyfriend and the one that takes the idea of a harem the hardest. He's the supportive best friend you always want by your side. Kalen is Tyler's older brother and the one with the traumatic PTSD from his time in the miltiary. He is brash and aggressive and bursting with rage. Fin is the iconic reverse harem group charming flirt, a ladies man who uses humor as a coping mechanism. And Riggs, my second favorite, is the intelligent, calm, thoughtful one in the bunch.
It was hard not to love all the men in Peyton's life, but Kalen stole my heart. My feminism flew right out the window. He could call me the meanest, nastiest names possible and I would say "thank you, sir, may I have another please." And the way that Riggs proved "the shy/quiet ones that are the freakiest?" They are the types I am always attracted to.
However, Diver's Heart is not just a love story and it is best to go in blind. The adventure and the thriller plot keeps the pace racing and my anxiety high.
