About the book
The high seas are calling!
As if it weren’t enough to be cheated on by her husband of ten years, Yorkshire lass Hannah Davis is losing her beauty salon business too. Luckily, her big sister is there to pick up the pieces, but Hannah is desperate to find some independence.
Impulsively, Hannah applies for a spa job…on a cruise ship! Christmas in the Caribbean, springtime in the Mediterranean, what’s not to like? But, despite being in her thirties, Hannah has never done anything on her own before, and she’s terrified.
As the ship sets sail, Hannah has never been further from home…or closer to discovering who she is and who she wants to be.
My review
The beautiful bright summery cover attracted me to reading this book and boy was I glad I read it.
Poor poor Hannah! From the minute we meet her, her whole life seems to be falling down and crumbling beneath her. She is at the lowest point in her life with her husband cheating on her and when she finally feels like shes able to get back to normal and start working again she is devastated to learn her staff and customers have left and went to rival business with her arch enemy Cherry.
Hannah spots an opportunity to work in a spa on board a cruise ship, completely out of her comfort zone but after all what has she got back home to stop her? So she plucks up the courage and applies for it and before she knows it she is starting her very first day on board the massive cruise liner.

She immediately builds a close friendship with her roommate and work mate Kristy, Kristy helps Hannah settled in on board the ship and overcome her sea sickness.
Its not long before Hannah meets Ben a passenger who comes to the salon for a His and Hers honeymoon package, but all's not as it seems and we see Hannah put her job in jeopardy and start sneaking around determined not to be caught but she can't help her feelings for Ben, and she just wants to spend every minute exploring each destination with him.
The holiday cruise reminds me of Titanic and Hannah and Ben's relationship like Rose and Jack. Two people perfectly matched but are not allowed to be together.
This is a truly fantastic read I couldn't put it down, I was on the edge of my chair nervous for Hannah when she was sneaking about with Ben. I just didn't know if she was going to get caught out or not.
The descriptions of each of the destinations the ship docked at and the ship itself made it so easy for me to imagine.
I just want to go and book myself on to a cruise now!
