Perfect for you if...

You love character-driven stories where everyday people collide with wealth and privilege, and come away changed.
You're drawn to slow-burn romance that builds tension alongside deeper emotional connections and personal growth.
You want escapism that feels grounded: sunny settings paired with real stakes like family secrets and social boundaries.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer plot-heavy thrillers or fast-paced mysteries over relationships and personal reflection.
You're looking for edgy, dark, or morally complex characters rather than warm, relatable protagonists.
You find the wealthy-person-needs-to-escape-to-find-themselves trope exhausting or clichéd.

About this book

Bella Mason, who has always dreamed of escaping her small town, lands a job as chief stewardess on a private yacht. Actress Felicity Kennedy, seeking refuge from public life, travels to the Riviera with her family for a holiday. When Bella and Felicity's paths cross aboard the yacht, their lives intersect in unexpected ways. The two navigate romance, uncover long-buried family secrets, and experience personal transformation during their time together on the water. Set on the Riviera, the story follows these characters as they confront new relationships and discover new perspectives on life.
