Can love be found amid danger on the high seas?
Katelyn is a nice, quiet high school English teacher, fully resigned to the single life after a crushing divorce, quite possibly leaning toward crazy cat lady status. Will a tropical Caribbean cruise be the key to unlocking her inner wild child -- long dormant, ready to spring free? Perhaps with the help of Noah, the sexy, gorgeous stranger she meets on board - whose reason for being there is not what it seems?
And why is she suddenly the victim of multiple crimes, . . . both during and after the cruise. Could it be that the very circumstances that brought them together will very likely tear them apart?
When Katelyn is offered a free Caribbean cruise, she realizes this could be a chance for her to get her carefree mojo back. What she doesn't know is that the cruise is a set-up intended to transport data for a dangerous cartel intent on expanding their operations to the East Coast. She unwittingly couriers a device for this cartel and ends up getting caught in their crosshairs in a violent, painful and almost fatal manner.
Noah, a former Navy SEAL, now a private security operator, is assigned to work covertly on the cruise ship to intercept this device. The last thing he expects is to meet a petite beauty who has the potential to rock his world.
Follow along on their sensuous journey as they navigate through several ominous and unsettling events together in stunning tropical locales and back home with family and friends.
In the midst of this danger and intrigue, Noah and Katelyn find themselves deeply attracted to each other, but each have a past with failed relationships to overcome before they can find lasting happiness together. Will they prevail? Do they have enough faith in themselves and each other to open their hearts and finally surrender their long-term convictions that they are not allowed a happily ever after?
Expect to be led on a roller coaster of anticipation from the time Noah and Katelyn meet -- as Katelyn allows her inner sex kitten to surface and Noah struggles with his long-held belief that he prefers casual hook-ups over long-term commitments while falling for the petite beauty.
To add a lighthearted note, experience amusing and unexpected interactions with Katelyn's adorable niece and nephew, her feline fur babies and her penchant for telling stories about . . . produce?
