Nina has been the Chief Stewardess on a superyacht for 10 years, and everyone thinks that she and former yacht chef Ollie have some serious chemistry. At the start of their new charter season, Nina boards the yacht to find that Ollie is back - with an ultimatum. At the end of the season, if Nina still denies that she has feelings for Ollie, he'll leave for good.
Sarah Grunder Ruiz has become my latest contemporary romance author to follow. This was a SOLID followup to Love, Lists, & Fancy Ships and I'm so ready for her third book (about Ollie's brother!!) to come out! I absolutely love her writing and the cast of characters she's created.
If you read her first book, you will love this one too. We got bits and pieces about Ollie and Nina in LL&FS so to see them really fleshed out in this one was a joy. There's a reveal in Chapter 4 that had me SHOOK. So. Good.
To mix up the storytelling a bit I was glad that Ruiz used alternating chapters to flashback to the days when Ollie and Nina first met. Love that backstory and added history.
Thanks to NetGalley & Berkley for the advanced e-book!
