As the narrative unfolds, Scarlett’s struggles with mental health issues like “the twisties,” which affect her diving performance, are poignantly portrayed. Her journey toward self-acceptance is as compelling as the romance itself. Meanwhile, Lukas offers support without trying to fix her problems—a trait that adds depth to their relationship. The book’s exploration of intimacy and emotional connection makes every encounter between Scarlett and Lukas charged with unspoken emotion. With its steamy yet emotionally intense storytelling, “Deep End” marks a significant shift in Hazelwood’s writing style towards more complex characters and darker themes.

“A captivating novel that blends romance and self-discovery set against the backdrop of competitive sports, showcasing Hazelwood’s skill in addressing complex themes with authenticity.”
