HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS...BUT WHAT IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR HOME IS?
Selena Harper has always thought she has the perfect job: working on a luxury cruise ship, she's whisked around the world from Alaska to Zanzibar with excitement and adventure awaiting her in every port.
But as she prepares for her latest shore-leave, she finds herself unexpectedly deserted by her newly-engaged best friend and begins to wonder if life on the ocean wave really is her dream come true.
Why is she the only one who isn't settling down? And how can she be feeling homesick when she has no home?
On a whim, she agrees to spend a week on the idyllic island of Crete, in the company of Alekos, a man she's convinced is an incorrigible womaniser. Steeped in mythology, the island soon starts to work its magic on Selena - and, more worryingly, so does Alekos.
Is he really the cad she thinks he is? Or could he be just what she needs?
