But it’s hard to get away from someone when you’re stuck on the same ship. Things are bad enough when the pair finds themselves on one of the cruise’s snorkeling excursions. Then paradise turns to piracy when their party is kidnapped, and Lyn’s fear of a fairy tale turns grim.
My Review
I have been dying to read A CHANGE OF PLANS since before Donna’s contract with Rhemalda was signed, and it definitely did not disappoint.
There were so many things I loved about the book, but one of the things I really appreciated is Donna’s attention to detail. I really became immersed in the various settings. I felt like I was on the cruise ship. I felt like I was on the various islands. I felt in the story. I also appreciated the detail she gave to characters; Lyn’s hair got icky and Braedon didn’t always smell nice. It’s those types of details that make a story really come alive for me.
The characters are so rich, likeable, and real…especially Lyn and Braedon. I also am a huge Jori fan. (Read the book to fall in love with Jori yourself.) I was emotionally invested in the story and the characters from the end of chapter one. I loved watching Lyn and Braedon’s relationship. I loved that they fought. They were a couple I constantly rooted for and I just was dying for them to succeed.
The book took a couple of unexpected twists and turns for me, and ended up being not quite what I expected. I love it when a book does that. I was drawn in from page one and finished the book with a happy sigh. An adorable story that I loved!
