About this ebook

Hoodwinked into taking a Caribbean cruise, former Navy SEAL Luke "Brooklyn" Chapman is expecting free-flowing booze, bikini-clad women, and an abundance of recreation.

Hardworking Sharla Kramer has her hands full keeping her sticky-fingered grandmother out of trouble. Looking forward to a nice rest, the last thing she wants from her surprise vacation is a new man in her life.

Add a couple of swindlers, a retired cop, a few fun-loving ladies in red hats, and too quickly a little high seas R & R turns into high stakes.

Ratings and reviews

What a story , handsome buffed men , beautiful women & con artists to boot so what more could a reader want. This book is exciting & romantic, set on a cruise ship with both older & younger men & women falling in love. I would recommend this book to all who love adventuresome romantic stories

This is a very readable book that held my attention very well. I believe many people can relate to it on many levels. There seems to be a little something for everyone to enjoy. Anyone that has ever been on a cruise will get a kick out of Chris' humor of life on a cruise. I especially like the fact that Chris' writing style is not TOO wordy with her descriptiveness ( is that a word?). There are soo many books I attempt to read that I never make it through due to being over descriptive. Thanks Chris!!

Prequel to the series, and I'm glad I haven't read the others yet. But now that I have started, I am definitely going to get the rest of the stories.

About the author

USA TODAY Bestselling author Chris Keniston's love of a good story and frustration with the end of a well known author's romance best seller, drove her to pen her own works of romance and fiction.

Her romantic women's fiction novels include a variety of themes from international settings dealing with wealthy millionaires, family feuds and tropical beaches, to the relationships between family and friends in small town Texas, and to sisterhood and friendship in the award winning novel The Champagne Sisterhood.

Currently working on the contemporary romance Aloha series and her brand-new contemporary western romance Farraday Country series, Chris Keniston is enjoying playing with her former military heroes. Using popular themes of small towns and sandy beaches blended with stories of the single dad, survivors guilt, an accidental wedding and more is making the Aloha Series a reader's choice.

A native New Yorker, Chris Keniston was on her way to Australia when she fell in love with North Texas. Little did she know the balmy seventy degree October days would turn into fry-an-egg-on-the-sidewalk heat in August!

Author of more than a dozen contemporary novels, including a finalist for the prestigious Golden Heart Award, Chris lives in suburban Dallas with her husband, two human children, and two canine children. Though she loves her puppies equally, she admits being especially attached to her German Shepherd rescue named Gunny. After all, even dogs deserve a happily ever after.
