4 1/2 Stars for the quick sweet summer romance!

I loved how Laiyla met Chloe and KT ... really intense. I love the banter in this book ... I could just see best friends talking to each other like that and the same with Levi and Mitch. All the characters are really well developed and very different from each other. This is a feel good romance that makes you believe that maybe there is a happily-ever-after. And the steamy scenes were ... well, really steamy! This is the first book that I have read by this author ... and it won't be my last. I can't wait for the Chloe and KT's stories ... at least, I hope they are getting stories.

All through Laiyla's childhood she spent her summers with her grandfather on Wildfire Lake and that was the happiest time of her life. She got to spend time with her best friend and boyfriend Levi, until she was seventeen. Levi hasn't been able to move on ... for twelve years, he's been comparing every woman to Laiyla. Three years after Laiyla's grandfather passes, she goes back to Wildfire Lake to stay at the cabin her grandfather left her. Only she finds that the cabin is destroyed and the marina and houseboats are in shambles. She didn't think she'd be there long enough to run into Levi, but who is the first person she runs into ... that's right, Levi! And he has turned out fine ... well more than fine ... he's handsome with all kinds of muscles. Levi can't believe his eyes .., Laiyla ... in the flesh ... and wow, she is more beautiful than ever. Now he just has to keep the walls around his heart, because he can't fall for her again, only for her to leave ... again!

I loved this simple yet charming love story.
Laiyla and Levi were childhood best friends, spending many summers together when she visited her grandfather near where Levi lived. As they grew up they morphed into lovers and vowed to always be together. But Laiyla's wealthy parents had other plans for her life and sent her to Paris to work. Both were left heartbroken, and never got over that special love they shared.
Twelve years later, Laiyla has inherited her grandfather's house and has returned to see it. But, it is in a state of disrepair, and her and her friends agree to fix it up and turn it into their newest adventure. So what happens when the best contractor in town happens to be Levi, and the chemistry is as strong as ever? Laiyla needs to stand up to her controlling parents, find a way to make Levi trust her again, and rebuild the beautiful legacy her grandfather left her. Can she do all of that and find the happiness she deserves?
Loved the characters, the plot flowed smoothly from scene to scene and I rooted for them all. Truly enjoyed this.

4 stars
A very fast read for me. A good second chance, small town romance. There was a lot of emotion in this story, Lost love, losing a family member, parents who don't care, town people who care too much. Levi got my heart from the first time he is in the book. It took me a while to warm up to Laiyla. I wanted to like her, but she made it hard!

I loved the friends, KT and Chloe. I am sure they will have books in the future!!

This was a sweet, second-chance romance with a comforting, picture perfect setting and strong ties of everlasting friendship. I enjoyed my time at Wildfire Lake and the premise of the second chance fit well here. Skye Jordan painted a pretty picture and this was easy romance reading.

It took me about half the book to really feel the heroine fully. She started as very judgemental and a few times has some real cringe worthy moments. Her words and actions didn't quite match up to the whole "first love lost" theme she was dealing with from the beginning. I did enjoy watching her turn that around and where she ended up. And I did, however, love the hero of this book. He was perfect and sweet even though he was a lot mixed up and a little lost about the the abrupt shift in his life when she walks back into his life.

Overall, the story was satisfying and left some intrigue for other players to find love on Wildfire Lake which I'm definitely looking forward to reading.

5 stars!

Gosh I LOVED this book! It has everything I like. Big city girl moves back to the small town where she had the best summers of her life after her granddad has died and has left his big property to her. She originally goes there on a trip with two of her best friends, and I adored the way the author handled the friendships in this book, and just relationships in general. All of the connections felt so real and genuine, and the chemistry between Levi and Lailya was off the charts! I can't wait to read the romance between the hot cop and Cloe 😏. I have definitely found a new favorite author!

Skye Jordan is off to a running start with her new series. It is an excellent second chance romance that introduces current book characters, as well as upcoming book characters that you can’t wait to learn more about. In Too Deep is about connections with the people in your life who make it complete. The characters were very real and believable. It was a page turner from beginning to end and I can’t wait for more in this series!

This was probably one of the sweetest romance novels I have read this year. A second chance romance following Laiyla and Levi.

Laiylas parents control her life leading her and Levi‘s relationship to end when they’re teenagers.
After a near death experience brings her and two other women together they start an empowering friendship, in which the three go out of their way to support each other.
The book then fast forward seven years To the trios 30th birthday where they stay and celebrate at the property where Laiyla and Levi fell in love.
The yearning between the two characters is extremely well done and believable. I loved it. The romance is sweet and steamy in all the right places and you can’t help but cheer for the two.

This is the first book that I have read from Sky Jordan. I loved it! Laiyla ends up back at her late grandpas lake property which was left to her when he passed years previous. She runs into her ex boyfriend Levi who she just left without a goodbye twelve years ago. I liked the characters and how the story developed. I can’t wait to read the next characters book.

What an awesome second chance love story. Read it , you won’t be disappointed!

Loved the characters and looking forward to seeing what happens in later books.

I especially loved how the author didn’t dwell on the past story. With second chance love stories I typically find the back story takes up as much book as present. That is not the case here which was refreshing.

Overall a very well written book that I would recommend to friends to read.

The story started off strong and unexpected but then it became a bit cliché and did not have enough to keep me interested,

I love Skye's writing. Her words flow and the interactions between the characters are easy to read. So I'd always give her 5 plus for her writing. This storyline though landed at a 3 (resulting average of 4). It was tough to connect with the characters - Laiyla seemed too wimpy to her parents and Levi was too wimpy towards what happened when they were 18. They both needed to buck up and work through their stuff. They finally did and the ending was great - but it felt like the story had a thread of sadness until the last few pages. I am hopeful given how interested the other characters are the next story will be great.

IN TOO DEEP -Wildfire Lake Series is the first book in a new series and it's a great opener, realistic and extremely believable plot. With characters that make you feel, A great read which makes you want to read more books in the series.

Absolutely enjoyed this story of young love being rekindled.
I enjoyed the main characters, and was able to relate to their emotional struggles in regards to their relationship and the ripple effect that it might bring, especially for our main female character.
The friendships and family dynamics I really enjoyed, as they were for the most part supportive and loving.
A really quick and enjoyable love story.

I haven’t read any other books by this author. It was not a name I recognised but after finishing this one and really enjoying it I looked on Amazon only to find she has written quite a few, all with really good feedback. I will definitely be adding the author to my must read list.
I really enjoyed this story and was sorry to finish it. I hope it was the first of a series of 3 as I would really enjoy getting a glimpse into the HEA for the other 2 friends. Leiyla and Levi were great characters and their interactions with each other and the others in the book made great escapist reading.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me to read a preview copy.

I really liked this and I’m looking forward to the rest of the series. My only gripe was that I needed it to be longer. Thank you to netgalley for the ARC.

Oh, what a solid start to a series. Laiyla let her insecurities and desire to please her parents force her to walk away from the first (and only?) love years ago. A chance meeting gives her the two best friends she could hope for, but she still misses that love. Until....she heads back to where it all started.

Levi has tried to live his life, knowing that his One has left him in the dust, but he just can’t. Then his One comes back, and he’s stuck with conflicting feelings of love, pain, anger, and fear that this time won’t be enough for her either.

Laiyla and Levi both have some growing left to do, but they manage to work through their issues together. But, as is life in a small town, many people aren’t okay with Laiyla’s return. So she has to prove herself to the man she never stopped loving and a town full of naysayers at the same time.

I enjoyed Levi and Laiyla, their friends, their family, and their town (once Laiyla found an unlikely ally, that is), and I’m interested to see what comes next.

Omg!! This better be a series!! Lol this book was everything!! I absolutely loved it! I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a series?! The characters are so interesting and likeable, I just can't wait for more! This book was funny but also had some heartache and heartbreak! And it was 🔥🔥🔥! I'm just so in love with these characters! Is is definitely one of my top favorite reads! Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me! And a big thank you to Skye Jordan for your wonderful words! Can't wait for more!

ARC received for review

I was a little confused when I started reading the prologue, but it's a good way to start a friendship. Laiyla, KT and Chole make a bond that survives a storm and lots of separation. Laiyla's parents are a real piece of work. I loved how she finally told them to stop. Levi has commitment issues since Laiyla left when she was 18. Now she's back to fix her grandfather's home and business...but will she stay after it's finished. They still had lots of sparks even after 12 years apart. Great epilogue. Now, who will her BFFs hook up? The cop, the doctor, someone new?
