Tropic Storm (The Island Escape Series, #1)

by Stella Quinn

Overview

LOVE A SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE?

 

Charlotte Jones is really good at faking it. She can fake smile her way through heartbreak, she can fake her way into interviews to write explosive, news-breaking stories for magazines, and she can fake her way online for her "Finding Your Happy" wellness blog that's gone viral. The one thing she can't fake her way out of? Anxiety. Turns out, being trampled in a riot isn't something a fake smile or a blog article can cure, even one with a catchy (okay, moronic, but she's too stressed right now to think up a better one) title like "Five Ways to Laugh in the Face of Danger".

She needs a vacation. Some alone time. Some real time. And a swanky hotel on a lush beach in Oahu is just what the doctor (well, therapist) ordered.

Jack Diamond is having a year of disasters. He's used to pressure: running a global business, and trying (and failing) to make his sister understand why her grungy boyfriend is bad news, are problems he can cope with. But the cops just called to tell him his manager is a crook, his mother's had a stroke, and his latest business deal is going bad. If he can just make it back to the family hotel in Oahu before he totally loses his cool…

He boards his plane only to discover the year hasn't quite finished throwing disasters his way: the woman seated beside him is none other than the one who ripped a hole in his heart nine years ago.  The one with the faker-than-fake smile.

 

Can you trust the person who broke your heart?

Here's what readers think …

Fleur says:
I can't wait to read more of this series!!!
"This was a great read with characters you will love and want to throttle at same time as lordy they do love to conclusions lol. If you love second chance romances then this is the book for you, Charlotte decides to take a couple of weeks off on a tropical island to decompress and relax after a horrible event that left her with panic attacks, unfortunately for her things go wrong before she even gets on the plane and that is where we begin our adventure of tormented love, attraction, deception, laughs, frustrations and the chance at being happy. This is a fantastic start to this series and I can not wait the next book to see what happens with Sabrina!"
