A totally unputdownable second-chance romance - characters with an unbeatable chemistry and a gorgeous HEA! It's hard to stay professional when you're stuck on a tiny island... with your ex Carrie Briggs is on the cusp of a career breakthrough. About to be made partner at her accountancy firm, she's been given one more hoop to jump through before it can be made official. And she could think of worse clients to work with - because world-renowned billionaire Joe Hettich is flying her out to his private island in the Caribbean. But her hopes of career highs (and relaxing in the gorgeous sun in her spare time, of course!) are dashed when she meets the CFO of Joe's company: Luke Chalmers, the man who broke her heart seven years ago when he chose his ex over her. With a storm brewing in paradise - both in her heart and literally, on the island - she's going to have to put her big girl pants on and get through this, before all those feelings have a chance to resurface...
