Nicely written and a pleasure to read as these characters had the ultimate vacation. Blake was a great sister friend to Blair. Great storyline and romantic scenes

This made me want to take a cruise and enjoy myself like Blake and Blair
That ending had me wondering if this is a happy for know ending or to be continued ending?? First of all, Blair truly had the ultimate betrayal occur to her but she definitely lucked up on getting to know Kofi, who sounds like my husband in my head Kofi from Queen Sugar. Langston started off pretty pretentious and cocky but he was the perfect fit for Blake. I have been to Dunn River Falls recently and this made me want to experience it again. I have always been curious about going on a cruise and this story definitely made that a goal of mines. Great story!!

LOVED IT
My second read by the author and I enjoyed reading this book. Loved the storyline and how the characters instantly hit it off. What better way to get over a heartbreak than to go on a girls trip. A refreshing read with romance and laughter. Kofi and Langston were just that perfect breath of newness for Blake and Blair. This book definitely has me wanting to go on a cruise and find me a Kofi or Langston to take my mind off my everyday life. I wish there was more to the story, just curious to how things would have progressed for the couples after the trip. Overall, a great read.

this book was sexy, fun, just downright refreshing. Two friends meet up with two friends and have a night of passion, just to wind up on the same cruise the next day. Reading about how they were able to find peace with each other after their recent toxic situations was so lovely. This author has a new fan in me. If I had one qualm with the book is that the two main female characters were named too similarly. I got confused trying to figure out who was Blair and Blake. Regardless, on to book two...

Hoping it was just an introduction!
Overall, I enjoyed the book but I wanted this to just be an introduction to both budding relationships. I would love to read a novel on Blair and Kofi as well as Langston and Blake relationships and how they achieved their happily ever after. The vivid details of the actual cruise makes you want take one and just enjoy.
Just a friendly suggestion but I would love a novel or two that dives deeper into both relationships. I would even take one novel since the ladies was like sisters and the guys like brothers.

Sometimes all we need is a little while
Awww this was so cute and sweet. I’m ready to book myself on the next cruise ship set to sail. Lol. I loved the characters and the bond that was created while on vacation. We all need a sense of peace and tranquility every now and then to escape the reality. I enjoyed it. Maybe we can get an update on our new favorite couples lol if not, good read!

I Need More
I hate that Blair caught her boyfriend Jeff and bestfriend Cristopher in bed together at her house and that Kofi's ex-fiance cheated and had a baby that he thought was his by her boss but they really connected on the cruise just like Blake and Langston. Langston was so gone that he wanted Blake to have his baby and vowed to wait on her while she did her final tour for the military in Japan. I want to read more about Blair and Kofi because they're so good together.

Makes me want to go on a cruise
I loved the energy of Kofi and Blair and Langston and Blake. They were the perfect kind of crazy. But you know now I'll be waiting to see what happens next because I have to see these love affairs played out to the end. Oh and I also hope Cris and the ex get beat down again just in GP.

Let Me Love You
I need more!!. This was a cute, funny and romantic story. I love the chemistry between the couples and each other. A chance encounter turns into so much more. What we think we want is not always what we need. 1-click and enjoy what happens when we decide to let go and live it up... "If only for a little while"

Loved It!!!!
Yeessss honey. I loved everything about this story. The heartbreak and the healing. It was well written and the story flowed so well. I would love to hear more from these characters but if this is it then I'm still satisfied. From beginning to end the characters draw you in and hold your attention. Definitely a must read!!!

Love It
I liked this book because I love, romance. This was romance at its finest. Kofi & Blair shared something beautiful after they both had their hearts broken. It was good to see people find their peace after there hurt. Langston & Blake I loved their chemistry. And I hope the ending will bring out about another book.

Loved it!! Didn't see that happening with Chris knowing good and well he was meeting her at her house. But listen.... I need a part 2... Like NEOW, lol. I'd love to see their love continue to blossom!!!! Also I love how you ended it a complete story with no cliffhangers but open enough to continue the story if you so choose. Kudos to you ma'am!!

Sweet
I enjoyed this romance. It opened with a bit of drama, but quick moved to pure, light romance. The author managed to pack in quite a bit of activity and movement in the story. The characters were also developed enough to get a good sense of who they were. There are still some unresolved issues, so I'm looking forward to a sequel.

I really enjoyed this book. I felt for both Blair and Kofi. Their exes did them dirty so them connecting was just what the other needed.
Blake and Langston’s were both wild and crazy and also a perfect match.
Loved watching the foursome chill and have fun. The end was sweet.

One Night Stand
I love the way the story line was written. It let these individuals just have fun and enjoy themselves. I love how they make Blake a ground woman who could hold her own.

Little While
I was hoping Blair and Blake got their happy ending with their men. Kofi and Langston were perfect for them. Maybe we can get a book where they meet again.

Abrupt Ending
For this to be so good and then the ending to be so abrupt and rushed I was surprised. I am disappointed and expected more .

If only...
I really enjoyed this story. S. Rever I need a part II. It wasn't a cliffhanger, but I feel like there is back story for Blake that needs to be explored. Great read!

Wonderful!
I really did not like the way the story ended. I would like Kofi and Blair get more of a better ending. There needs to be a Part 2.

Love by chance!
OMG! Like seriously I need more. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I loved every moment of this read. Blair, Kofi, Blake and Langston were all my favorites... I just can't pick one! Their journey was exciting and full of life. They took a chance on each other and it worked out.. even though it was only for a little while. The storyline didn't waste any time pulling you right in from the beginning. Excellent read S. Rever!!!
