Cruise Fling
From romantic comedy author Kathleen Allen, whose heartfelt, witty love stories blend humor, romance, and emotional second chances, comes a feel-good romance about finding love when life is already full and discovering that sometimes the best moments are the ones you never planned for.
Andrea has her life perfectly scheduled-right down to the color-coded calendar that keeps her executive job at Pinnacle Cruise Line, her responsibilities as a single mom, and her sanity neatly in line. Her world is organized, predictable, and safe. Romance? That's something she sacrificed long ago for stability, responsibility, and doing what needed to be done.
Thomas saves children's lives for a living. As a pediatric surgeon, he makes impossible decisions every day without hesitation. But when a family cruise unexpectedly turns into a trip for two, he finds himself facing something far more complicated than surgery-an entire week alone with Andrea, the one woman he's always liked a little more than he should.
They're not strangers. Their families are connected. Holidays overlap. Sunday dinners are shared. Which means falling for each other is the one thing they absolutely shouldn't do.
Love wasn't on the schedule. Chemistry didn't care.
But somewhere between ocean sunsets, late-night conversations, dancing under the stars, and laughter neither of them saw coming, their carefully controlled lives begin to slip off schedule. What was supposed to be a simple vacation turns into stolen moments, lingering looks, inside jokes, and a connection that feels easy, natural, and a little bit dangerous.
Because cruise ships are funny that way. They feel like their own little world-where real life is far away, time slows down, and hearts start doing things no one planned. But every cruise eventually docks.
What happens at sea was never supposed to follow them home.
Back on land, Andrea's structured life and Thomas's demanding career come rushing back, along with responsibilities, distance, and the fear that what they found at sea might not survive in the real world.
Unless some love stories aren't meant to be scheduled.Unless some connections are too strong to ignore.And unless the best things in life happen when everything stops going according to plan.
Because sometimes the perfect love story begins with a Cruise Fling.
Packed with humor, heart, tropical adventures, and sizzling chemistry, Cruise Fling is a feel-good romantic escape that will leave you smiling long after the ship docks. Because sometimes a vacation romance isn't just a fling-it's the start of a whole new life.
