Hook, Line, and Sinker (Deluxe Edition) by Tessa Bailey

Friendship was supposed to keep things simple—falling in love complicated everything.

Hook, Line, and Sinker follows Fox Thornton, a charming king crab fisherman known for never taking relationships seriously, and Hannah Bellinger, the only woman who seems completely unaffected by his reputation. When Hannah temporarily moves into Fox’s spare room while working on a film project, the two strike up an easy friendship built on late-night talks, support, and undeniable chemistry.

As Fox helps Hannah pursue another man, the lines between friendship and something deeper begin to blur. Tessa Bailey delivers a heartfelt, slow-burn romantic comedy filled with emotional vulnerability, coastal charm, and sizzling tension beneath years of self-doubt and fear.

Perfect for readers who love:
• friends-to-lovers romance
• slow-burn tension
• small coastal town settings
• emotionally vulnerable heroes
• steamy contemporary rom-coms
