The Happily Ever After Company #2
Carried Away
When Erica Lane's wealthy fiancé proves inattentive, she announces that she's accepted a match made by the Happily Ever After Co. But when the proud Boston beauty sets sail for the Caribbean to meet her new intended, she suddenly finds herself marooned on a far-flung tropical isle with the most arrogant, impossibly attractive man she's ever met.
Daniel McCullum, a widowed sea captain with three young children, has made it clear that he has no intention of marrying a pampered society miss. It isn't long though before desire flames between them and Erica discovers what it is to truly love a man...with passion as deep as the wild, raging sea.

February 24, 2019The premise of this made very little sense to me. The heroine’s fiancé neglects her, so her solution is to get her friend married off to a man she’s never met who lives in a different country (arranged by a matchmaker via the hero’s mother in law). On top of that, the heroine travels, (unchaperoned!) to meet this man in order to arrange the marriage (that he knows nothing about) to her friend in the hopes her fiancé will come after her to rescue her.
Huh?
She doesn’t even consider that this would cause a huge scandal, society would consider her utterly ruined for traveling across the ocean alone and her fiancé might refuse to marry her.
Also, you want to arrange a marriage and yet don’t even bring the prospective bride with you? This would have made more sense if she’d taken her friend with her and passed her off as her maid or something.
The hero/heroine don’t even meet until 20% into the book either, which I don’t like in a romance.
Maybe this got better, but I just couldn’t suspend disbelief enough to get through it.
