About this ebook

From different worlds…

…to the perfect family?

Entrusted to take his late colleague’s young son to his grandmother, Manhattan financier Matt McLellan hires down-on-her-luck skipper Meg O’Hara to take them across Australia’s Bass Strait. He might be a billionaire, but on board Meg’s boat she’s the boss! The flame-haired beauty gets under the committed bachelor’s skin and by the time they reach their destination, Matt’s wondering if he’s finally found the family he never knew he needed…

“Ms. Lennox has given her readers a trust book, yes it’s a romance and yes there is a HEA…. The ability that she has to show us this through her story, but relatable enough to get into your head is a true talent…I would classify this as a classic….”

Ratings and reviews

Matt McLellan is a Manhattan financier who ends up taking care of Henry, the son of one of his colleagues who was killed in a traffic accident. Matt feels responsible for him and is at a loss of how to help him. Henry has been in contact with his grandmother in Australia and Matt sets out to bring him there. Meg O’Hara works for a charter boat company and is hired by Matt to bring them across Bass Strait to the island where Peggy, Henry’s grandmother lives. Meg questions Matt about Henry to make sure that he is on the up and up. There are many adventures the three face before they even get to Peggy’s island. The boat goes on fire and they have to get to shore on a deserted island and wait for help. Meg proves to be well equipped to help them survive. She also helps Henry begin to open up using her dog Boof. After meeting Peggy, they realize that she is incapable of taking care of Henry and convince her to leave the island. Meg offers Peggy and Henry to live with her, but things change when Henry’s biological father is found. The father has conditions for Henry to be adopted by Matt and he agrees. Matt convinces Peggy and Meg to return with him to NYC. They go. Soon Meg realizes that Matt is a workaholic and is using that as an excuse because he can’t express his feelings for Meg. She decides to go back to Australia. Matt soon realizes what he has lost and decides to do a grand gesture to get her back. I loved this story. It was so sweet. Meg is a strong independent woman who impressed Matt with her skills. He was man enough to let her take control in order for them to survive. They had great chemistry. My heart broke for both Henry and Peggy, but I was happy that they found each other. This is a feel- good story that has a happily ever after. Couldn’t put it down.
