Sail La Vie

Rate this book
Six months ago, Finn Montgomery and Josephine Baxter called off their engagement. It wasn’t working, it was never going to work. Despite a past spanning over a decade and strings that felt impossible to detach, they went their separate ways.
Until last week when they discovered the 30-day long honeymoon they had booked aboard the Sail La Vie was nonrefundable. Now Finn and Jo have to decide whether they want to call the money a loss, or brave the rough seas together one last time.
Close quarters, years worth of baggage to sift through, and the oddest bunch of people you could ever be stuck on a floating hotel in the ocean with are just some of the obstacles Finn and Jo have to wade through.
Or one will throw the other overboard, whichever comes first.
Sail La Vie is lovingly coined an idiots-to-lovers spicy second chance romance set aboard a cruise ship where the main characters are child-free by choice with a guaranteed happily ever after.

About the author

Ila Sikorski

4 books115 followers
Ila is a hopeless romantic who loves to write small town stories with found family, banter, happy endings, and a dash of spice.

Born and raised in Massachusetts, an overly emotional pisces, she is a girl mom to the coolest kid ever, married to the boy she had a crush on in high school, and completely obsessed with her cat.

When she’s not writing, you can find her and the family checking every Disney destination off their bucket list, speaking in song lyrics, binging early 2000s tv shows, reading books that make her cry, and sending ridiculously long voice memos to her friends.

**Thank you to the author for the early copy**

Finn Montgomery the down bad sweet pathetic man you are!!! And my girl Jo Baxter! Ugh what a gal!!! Once I started reading “Sail La Vie” I could not put it down. Second chance romance, on a cruise ship, with forced proximity FOR THIRTY DAYS?!! INJECT IT INTO MY VEINS RIGHT NOW!! Ila’s writing just keeps getting better and better (I mean the merry mount series was already incredible). The banter, the spice, all of it is incredible!

Jo (FMC) left her fiancé Finn (MMC) in the middle of the night, 6 months before their wedding and non-refundable honeymoon. Finn decides to go (as his Hail Mary to win her back) and Jo joins, since it’s non-refundable why give up a vacay?! Everything will be fine. Right?! RIGHT?!

The dual POV with some slight dial timelines and flashbacks were absolute perfection. I cannot wait for the rest of the world to meet Jo and Finn. Run, do not walk to pre-order this banger. You know I already have!!! “Sail La Vie” publishes on 2/23/2027!
