She writes a beauty blog. He’s heir to a beauty empire. Love never looked so good.

Megan Cooper believes fate is about to strike—and zap her sleepy small-town life with a jolt of big-time romance. There’s just one thing: she hasn’t found him yet. No matter. The feisty redhead is on a mission to meet her match. When a charming, mysterious, handsome stranger named Alexander offers to help with her quest, she must decide if she believes in fate…or what lies in her heart.

Alexander Andrews, heir to a beauty empire, is all about business. Sure it’s his family’s company, but after all these years he can do a deal in his sleep. When his assistant sends him on Emerald Princess for some much-needed relaxation, he doesn’t think it’ll do him any good. But one look at Megan and he feels his legendary control slipping from his grasp. His heart is in her hands…but is he ready to risk it all?

I was impressed right from the beginning with the author's style. I love her voice, the use of language, and her ability to make the reader feel the story. This wasn't a story with a huge conflict, but when I awoke at 3 am I read through it completely and went back to sleep with a smile on my face. It's a short, sweet feel good romance. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

It made me want to be a better writer.

Review of eBook

Alexander Andrews is, in his assistant Margery’s mind, in desperate need of a vacation, so she arranges for him to go on a cruise. Megan Cooper, certain that Grandma Trini’s dream vision of the future is right, is on the same cruise [courtesy of Grandma Trini] in search of her soulmate. She only knows that his name is Richard.

Can Grandma Trini’s dream vision be right, or is Alexander Megan’s true soulmate?

This sweet story is a heartwarming tribute to faith in family, to believing in fate, and in happily ever after. Sprinkled with humor, the charming tale adroitly weaves cruise highlights and the legend of the seawitch Aquanna into the telling of the shipboard romance and keeps readers involved in the unfolding story. The characters are interesting; the story is delightful. Readers will find much to appreciate here.

A Sneak Peek at the author’s novel, “Down the Hidden Path,” is included.

Highly recommended.

Excuse my rants! I'm in love..

First, I'm so glad that the grandmother dreamed of a Richard. This made the love story no easy fall in love now, marry next. A struggle between following her heart and obeying a prophecy (in a dream) was just the exact thing a love story needs to be real and beautiful. A mix of love and sadness, of care and searching.. I just love this story all over.
The plot twists and the fairy tale weaved in make this one of the most memorable stories I've read. It's a must read for everyone who'd like to enjoy an evening with some romance.

I am going on my first cruise in 4 days, so I decided to see if there were any romantic novels about people cruising and I found these! This book is so romantic and enjoyable! I will be reading this one again ! It is very clean too! Such a nice read!!!

Cute and Clean Cruise Romance
This is a sweet and clean romance that takes place on a Princess Cruise Line Caribbean trip. This is a very short novella, perfect for a short beach read. It is all about the romance and is quite the advertisement for Princess Cruises. The story is good and well worth the time.

Obvious

Straight forward with little interest or intrigue. The feelings appeared physical and the characters needed depth. I never really believed the story. Perfect fantasy beach read.

This one started off with more promise than the last one I read, but it proved to be just as unbelievable as the last one. Once again the characters were flat and the situations a little too out there.

And the big “twist” at the end? That was dumb.

Sweet romance story set aboard a Princess cruise. Megan and Alexander each found love when they were least expecting it. They were not even looking for it. But love works in strange ways.

I’ve read other books by this author, and she really is usually quite skilled and imaginative. I’m glad I didn’t pay for this one.

Dream

I have it five stars because it started out as a fantasy and ended as true love. Dreams do come true!!

I got this for free on Amazon and didn’t expect this to be a good short read in the first place but it’s actually worth to read. The ending was actually a bit cliche for me, but i didn’t mind tho!

This was an audiobook made for Princess Cruises that was provided in the stateroom. I listened while packing my bags on the last night. It was cute & corny, my husband wasn’t a fan lol.

Fun and fluffy

It's a novella, so there isn't a lot of depth, but it is still a fun story. I liked the characters well enough and the romance fluff.

This was just an all around sweet romance. Megan believes her grandmother is right and the cruise she is going on is going to be where she finds true love. Alexander is being forced into a vacation by his assistant. This puts the couple together for the perfect romance....except not. The busy billionaire is struck by Megan's beauty but she is on a mission.
The author does a great job pulling you into this story. I wasn't sure I was going to like the ending but I really did. The story line is sweet and there isn't a whole lot of twist to it but there is some. It is a short read so you should absolutely grab a copy and read just to put a smile on your face!
It was a 5/5 for me. Was nice to have a simple, sweet romance story to read.

Engaging short read

It captured my attention and it was a short, sweet story. Easy reading that makes you smile and wish that you could meet a man just like Alexander.
