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?
