fine contemporary romance

Though he made much more money being an architect, personal assistant Chloe Winton agreed to split costs from their house to their marriage with her fiancé Gerald. He jilted her anyway insisting he found someone more compatible to his desires. Stunned and unable to face her family especially her mother and aunt, Chloe looks for an out. Captain Jack McCullough is struggling to make his honeymoon yacht profitable when his chef Kenneth quits because he eloped. Still he has no time to obtain a cook as the bride has arrived for her honeymoon; though no groom is with her. Attracted to his client from the first time he sees her, Jack is ecstatic to learn she was jilted. As they become acquainted over a week at sea, they fall in love, but both have doubts as she is still rebounding. Readers will feel for Chloe not so much because she was jilted though somewhat for that; more so because of the sympathy from family members who want to be nice to her. Jack also feels for the jilted bride, but part of what he sees is a courageous person moving on. Though a romantic relationship between them does not seem quite right as she still is rebounding and reeling, fans will enjoy this fine contemporary romance between two nice people. Harriet Klausner

Always delivers a great book!

The author never fails to develop interesting side characters as well as believable, real main characters in her books. Loved the premise for this one, and the theme, of someone breaking away from her normal life and daring to experience something new. But this isn't about one of your heiresses or socialites realizing themselves, but a real person, like your best friend or coworker. Enjoyed where most of the action takes place too--on a yacht for hire! And of course the chemistry is hot! Thanks for a great read! Her stories never disappoint.
