Chasing Islands - Great White Surf Saga, #8

The tides have turned for Topher Brooks. The scandal has passed, the West Coast Hooligans are back together, and his relationship with his brother Vin is smooth sailing once again. With a new California surf tour starting next year, Topher is training harder than ever to represent the USA in the big leagues. The only thing he's missing is someone special, but his boys are determined to take his mind off of his non-existent love life with the surf trip of a lifetime.
Sloane Harrington's life is in shambles. Since the St. Catalina Island Resort sold and her dad lost his job in the deal, her family is scraping to get by. She can't imagine life anywhere other than the island. But she knows they can't afford the life they've always lived. Against her dad's request, she's taken a job as a maid at the very resort that broke her family in hopes to help save her home.
Everything seems to be falling apart until she runs into an old friend. When Dominic introduces Sloane to Topher, the connection is instant. The hopeless romantic in Sloane can't help but fall into a whirlwind romance in between the waves, but she doesn't want her friends - new or old - to know of her recent misfortune. Keeping up appearances proves harder than she expected because the island is only so big and there are only so many places to hide her secrets... Dive into the world of Great White Surf in Crescent Cove, California!
