This stowaway sets sail for love!Small-time con artist Siggy needs to get out of town fast. When she’s offered tickets on the legendary Oceanic Aphrodite, Siggy jumps at the chance to get away. A week on a luxury cruise ship, with a suitcase full of clothes and all expenses paid? Yes, please! The only catch is that she has to pretend to be someone else. No problem. Siggy has no intention of … has no intention of getting close enough anyone to discover her secrets.
But this is the Oceanic Aphrodite and love is in the air. When Siggy sees assistant cruise director Will taking tickets, Cupid’s arrow hits the target. Luckily, Will’s too busy smiling at her to check out her fake passport because he’ll toss Siggy off the ship if he finds out about the scam.
Onboard, dolphins and cameras and runaway ferrets bring Siggy and Will together. The more time they spend together, the more Siggy wants to tell him the truth.
Cupid’s arrow has struck deep but can Siggy stop running?

I loved this book! The characters are so wonderful and interesting. I love the setting of the cruise ship. Siggy and Will’s romance is so sweet. The book is well written and detailed. I liked Siggy’s story and background. I also enjoyed the secondary characters. This is such a fun book. I could not put the book down once I started reading. I look forward to reading more in this series.
Siggy makes an ineresting heroine and I had a lot of fun following her escape from a less than ideal past, reconnecting with friends and family and finding her own HEA.
Since the story is written in a single (namely Siggy’s) POV, I’m kind of missing a better insight into Will’s head (and heart). I truly would have liked to get to know him better. It would have been interesting for me to get his take on Siggy’s shenanigans.
Holl Kerr paints a vivid picture of the Oceanic Aphrodite, and especially the passengers and crew we get to meet. Bonus points for Reuben, the Scottish barista, who serves some good old-fashioned wisdom along with his frappucinos.
I like Holly Kerr’s writing, and this light-hearted first-in-series novella makes me want to read more about the people connected to – and making connections on – the Oceanic Aphrodite.
