Summary

She’s my best friend’s little sister。 Completely off-limits。 But every man has his breaking point。

Lila James is my best friend’s little sister and I’ve always looked out for her。
She's five years younger than me, and when she left for college, she was just a kid。
But now she’s home for the summer—and she’s definitely not a kid anymore。
She’s beautiful and smart and everything I didn’t know I needed。
Dark eyes。 Long wavy hair。 And legs that are meant to be wrapped around me。
I'm the guy who likes to have a good time。
Keep things light。
When her brother asks me to hire her at my restaurant, it's a no-brainer。
There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for her。
Until she asks me for one more favor。
She wants me to be her first。
Take her V-card。
Go where no man has gone before。
Her words, not mine。
And damn if I don’t want to go there more than I’ve ever wanted anything。
She's only here for the summer, and she says it will be our secret。
It’s temporary。
We’ll go back to being just friends at the end of summer。
She promises that she won’t fall for me。
She knows better。
But Lila isn’t the one I'm worried about。

I found Laura Pavlov's books last year and have loved all of the one's I've read so far。 This first book in the series has some of my favorite tropes。。。best friend's sibling, small town, and big family。 It's forbidden since big brother is being overbearing。 Gah。 But I loved the storyline and how it played out。 The characters were easy to like。 My heart squeezed for Hugh and Lila。 The family dynamics warmed my heart。 I cannot wait for the next book in this series。 I found Laura Pavlov's books last year and have loved all of the one's I've read so far。 This first book in the series has some of my favorite tropes。。。best friend's sibling, small town, and big family。 It's forbidden since big brother is being overbearing。 Gah。 But I loved the storyline and how it played out。 The characters were easy to like。 My heart squeezed for Hugh and Lila。 The family dynamics warmed my heart。 I cannot wait for the next book in this series。 。。。more

Hugh Reynolds 🥵If you loved Honey Mountain you’re going to love their cousins in Cottonwood Cove!Lila calls him Bear and Hugh calls her Snow 😍 she is his best friend’s little sister and we all know they are off limits right? Even more so when she is a virgin 🙈But as small towns work their magic and people grow up, one thing leads to another and we have another amazing story by Laura Pavlov。 ❤️

He also wasn’t afraid to tell Travis that Lila was an adult and he needed to back off! She stuck to her guns always, knew exactly what she wanted and went for it。 Hugh supported her along the way。 They just seemed to work really well together which you would expect but I liked the tone of this story。 I enjoy Laura Pavlov’s writing style so I enjoyed it。Small things that I loved:🫶🏼 Roddy - don’t ask me why but his whole intro at the bar then the glimpses of him later were interesting to me 🫶🏼 The Reynolds sibling group chat。 Pig Botox? Hilarious!🫶🏼 Reynolds Sunday dinner! I love the juxtaposition of the Reynolds’ and Jameses。。 so different but so good together! 。。。more

Laura Pavlov is an autobuy for me for a reason! Her characters always draw me in and her writing style is always what I’m looking for。 Into the Tide was a great start to the Cotronwood Cove series! I loved seeing Hugh fight with himself internally before giving in to Lila was so much fun…for me。 I think they fit each other so well and I can’t wait for the updates that will pop up in the rest of the Cottonwood Cove series!

Lila left Cottonwood Cove for college and to be a runner。 Now she's back home for the summer to help with her dad before starting her new job。 Hugh is a hard worker, running restaurants。 He's best friend's with Travis, Lilia's brother。 When Travis asks him to give Lila a job helping him for the summer he agrees。 Things have changed though, can Lila and Hugh work together, give into their attraction, and then go their own ways when the summer ends? or can this homecoming be exactly what their hearts need?I loved the fact that Lila and Hugh have been in each other's lives for some time and getting to see them brought closer together。 I didn't know how they'd tackle working together and their feelings for one another which got me even more into their story。 There was such realness to both Lila and Hugh that got to me。 I admired Lila's big heart and determination。 I also admired Hugh's work ethic and his care for others。 The chemistry between these two was wonderful and undeniable! I loved how these two got me right in the heart with the feels they brought! I so enjoyed the whole brother's best friend aspect of it。 I adored the whole Reynolds crew and what they all brought to the story! With Into the Tide, Ms。Pavlov has created a great read that brought feels, spice, and heart that kept me turning the pages! I can't wait to dive back into this series with the second installment, Under the Stars! 💚*I volunteered to read and review a copy of this book from Valentine PR / the author* 。。。more

Love a good brothers bff story, started off strong but wasn’t as page turning as mountain series。 Her friends were getting really annoying always mentioning her virginity。 There were def some funny and cute parts but a lot of side/family characters with similar names I couldn’t follow

Amazing start to a new small town, big family series by Laura Pavlov。 She has infused this brother's best friend romance with the perfect amount of angst。 Hugh is deliciously protective as well as super sweet and caring。 Lila has a steely strength to her that her brother overlooks in his overprotectiveness but Hugh sees it from the beginning。 I loved her dedication and faith in her father。 The tension between Lila and Hugh is strong and the build up to them 'crossing the line' is oh so hot。 I lo Amazing start to a new small town, big family series by Laura Pavlov。 She has infused this brother's best friend romance with the perfect amount of angst。 Hugh is deliciously protective as well as super sweet and caring。 Lila has a steely strength to her that her brother overlooks in his overprotectiveness but Hugh sees it from the beginning。 I loved her dedication and faith in her father。 The tension between Lila and Hugh is strong and the build up to them 'crossing the line' is oh so hot。 I loved the journey they took in their relationship but also individually as they learnt what it is they really want in life。The family and friends that Lila and Hugh surround themselves with are hilarious; the conversations and text banter had me laughing out loud。 It was great to see the Honey Mountain crew again。 Laura Pavlov got the balance right, they are there enough to advance Hugh and Lila's storyline but not so much that it takes over the story。Looking forward to the rest of the series。 。。。more

She’s moving at the end of the summer, and Travis can never know。 No sense in getting attached because it would never go anywhere。 Except it does go somewhere。 It goes to the Cove and OMG (that scene 🥵 IYKYK)。 I love the dynamic between the two characters。 I love family aspect of Hugh, his siblings and his parents。 I love how they take so many people in the community in。 I love how she helps rebuild the relationship between her estranged father, her brother and her self。 This book had so many happy moments right alongside all of the steamy moments, and I cannot wait to continue to read the series。If you’re a fan of Catherine Cowles, Laura Pavlov, gives me a similar feel, and I think you would love these as well 👏🏻👏🏻 。。。more

Hugh & LilaInto the Tide is a small town romance。 Hugh and Lila knew each other as teenagers since Lila's brother and Hugh are best friends。 Lila is a girl who fought against all odds and went on to accomplish big things for herself。 She returns home for a summer after college and that's where our story takes place。 I honestly struggled with Lila's character。 She was set on doing things her own way and figuring them out on her own because she's "a grown woman。" But from the moment her character Hugh & LilaInto the Tide is a small town romance。 Hugh and Lila knew each other as teenagers since Lila's brother and Hugh are best friends。 Lila is a girl who fought against all odds and went on to accomplish big things for herself。 She returns home for a summer after college and that's where our story takes place。 I honestly struggled with Lila's character。 She was set on doing things her own way and figuring them out on her own because she's "a grown woman。" But from the moment her character entered the picture, she gave off immature vibes。 I read it as if she was a childish teenager。 Her saving grace was the care she had for her father。 She was willing to do anything to help him。 "I swear I orgasmed when he asked me how my beer was last night。 That voice。 Those hands。 That freaking hot Jesus hair。 I am here for all of it。"Hugh is your small town hunk who's as elusive as a unicorn。 He's infatuated with his best friend's little sister, but struggles with messing up things for everyone。 I liked the sweet things he would do for her, but he was a walking contradiction。 He kept insisting he couldn't cross lines, as he was crossing them, and put himself in situations that left them both vulnerable。 I wouldn't necessarily say it was angst more than frustration on my end as a reader。 "I'd tattoo her ass on my arm if I didn't think her brother would kill me。"The ending of the book was the best part of the story。 I don't know why I didn't connect better with the characters or the story, but I just couldn't until the last 20% or so。 Do I think others will love it? Sure! It's a small town romance, who doesn't love those? It's just not for me。 I also want to add that I've never read any of Laura Pavlov's other books, but I will be trying a few others。 She seems to be a loved author, so maybe this book just missed the mark for me。 。。。more

This was everything! Full of longing, sweet moments, and personal growth。 The characters were so easy to love, the “Snow Day” list Lila made was that of a woman who was ready to live a little more and I find that so relatable。 Hugh Reynolds was a man after my own heart, I would have fallen in love with him to if I was Lila。 He’s protective and wants the best for those around him。As always the Author made these characters and story come to life。 I can’t wait to see more of all of these characters This was everything!

Hugh and Lila’s story was a super cute read with small town vibes, incredible family bonds, steam, and a small amount of angst thrown in。 Lila is back in her hometown for the summer, after finishing college and accomplishing amazing things。 She is especially returning home to be there for her father and try to reach him through his addiction。 Lila is incredibly sweet even a tad naive, but she sees the good in everyone。 Hugh is her brother’s best friend, someone who has always been there for them Hugh and Lila’s story was a super cute read with small town vibes, incredible family bonds, steam, and a small amount of angst thrown in。 Lila is back in her hometown for the summer, after finishing college and accomplishing amazing things。 She is especially returning home to be there for her father and try to reach him through his addiction。 Lila is incredibly sweet even a tad naive, but she sees the good in everyone。 Hugh is her brother’s best friend, someone who has always been there for them both in the past, and over protective towards her even now。 As these two are thrown together in many ways the attraction is there and the tension is high, but the thought of ruining a lifelong friendship is always plaguing the back of their minds。 A lot of the reasons these two fought against their attraction was due to Lila’s brother Travis and it played such a huge roll at times I found myself not liking him。 Travis came off not only overprotective, but he was rude and practically thought he ran Lila’s life。 I wanted to smack him a few times even though I get why he was that way, I still never liked him because here he is happy living his new married life while dictating so much of others。 I love that we are getting more of a small town big family stories and I really liked the characters and bonds they had, I could go without Travis and his judgmental mindset and Lila’s moments of being naive or immature but definitely fell in love with Hugh。 。。。more

A résister à Hugh pour ne pas blesser son frère ou finira-t-elle par y céder? Même si l’intrigue est assez prévisible, elle se lit très facilement et on passe un excellent moment avec Lila et Hugh, qui sont des personnages extrêmement attachants, qui prennent du recul, réfléchissent。 La tension entre eux monte au fil des pages et ils n’y cèdent pas de suite!

Hugh Reynolds is the reformed playboy who takes in his best friends sister who is home for the summer and realizes how much he must have her。 Laura's words are fluid and powerful, as soon as I started the book, I couldn't stop。 Lila is back in her small town after graduating from college and her brother forbids her from living with their father who struggles with addiction so she ends up living with and working for his best friend, Hugh。 Hugh’s First book by Laura & honestly where have I been?

This was such a sweet book! I really enjoyed this small town/brother’s best friend/slow burn romance。 Hugh and Lila were so meant to be and I loved their story。 Hugh was so gone for Lila and would do anything for her。 I also adore books with big families who love each other and bringing people together。 I am so excited for more from the Reynolds’s! Four stars

Once again Laura Pavlov delivered us a story to fall madly in love with MCs。I'm not sure who I loved more。 Hugh has a lot of responsibility on his hands。 He's stretched out thin and looks forward to Lila coming home helping him out before she heads back to the big city。 What he wasn't prepared for was the fact how much she's grown since the last time he saw her。 And now his strength will be tested because keeping him away from her might turn out to be the hardest thing hell ever have to do。Lila Once again Laura Pavlov delivered us a story to fall madly in love with MCs。I'm not sure who I loved more。 Hugh has a lot of responsibility on his hands。 He's stretched out thin and looks forward to Lila coming home helping him out before she heads back to the big city。 What he wasn't prepared for was the fact how much she's grown since the last time he saw her。 And now his strength will be tested because keeping him away from her might turn out to be the hardest thing hell ever have to do。Lila is home before the real world comes knocking。 Her summer is going to be spent trying to get her father on the right track, spending time with her friends, and trying to lose the pesky V-Card。 What she doesn't expect is the man to help her lose it and fall for to be Hugh。These two were so cute together。 I loved every single thing about this story。 The banter, the angst, the sweet and swoony moments。 After finishing the Honey Mountain series I'm so excited to see I have a new series to fall head over heels in love with。 。。。more

**Audio Review**Into the Tide by Laura Pavlov was a heartfelt and swoony brother's best friend romance that left my heart feeling all deliciously gooey on the inside!

Mackenzie's performance of Lila's passionate, dedicated, and determined persona was spot on and had me cheering for her to experience all her firsts with dreamy Hugh。 (Yes, Snow!) Connor definitely turned on the charm with his performance of the protective, attentive, big burly sexy Hugh。 (Yes, Bear!) The forbidden, fiery HOT chemistry the narrators present between Hugh and Lila is earbud-melting worthy, and had me fanning myself quite a bit!Overall I LOVED the book! If you are a fan of small-town romance with a loyal loving bar owner, list-making fierce heroine, forced proximity, reconnecting with your father, an overprotective brother, skinny dipping at night, bar altercations, wedding dates, bikini wax mishaps, steamy slow burn first times, therapy sessions, and a HEA that is worth risking your heart then you will love Lila and Hugh's romance!
