Years ago Noah and Chloe were each other's everything, but suddenly she pulled a disappearing act breaking their hearts in the process. A decade later she's back in town and ready to make amends with her past... if only Noah would give her a chance to explain herself, but he's still too hurt to face her. Too bad that fate continues to throw them together.

So, I have read the other two installments in this series and although I enjoyed them, it was a light and entertaining read, BUT THIS in a word: emotional. Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes heartwarming. It was still easy and quick to read, but it still had everything you expect in a second chance romance: the little glimpses into the past when they were happy, the breakup, how that shaped them into who they are now, the trust issues and the longing to be with that other person again and a (realistic) happy ending. I totally recommend it!

It was also refreshing that for once it wasn't the man who left the girl moping around, and although they both tried to get on with their lives since the break up they both needed closure due to the uncertain way in which they ended. And the reason why they break up ...painful. There are no miscommunication issues and you can understand the reasoning behind the decisions both of them make in this story, so points for that too.

In general, "Second Dive" is the third installment in the Kings Of The Water series, but I think it can be read as standalone without problems. It's a emotional second chance romance that touches very sensitive topics such as loss, grief and second chances not only romantically speaking, but in life and has trigger warnings at the beginning that you should be aware of before enjoying this book.
