      Voyage into love

      Unlucky at love, Professor Angelina Lewis is resigned that she is more of an intellectual than a romantic. She is in the habit of satisfying the yearnings in her heart with academic pursuits. This all changes when her sister talks her into taking her place on a singles’ cruise. On the high seas, red-hot desire ignites when she meets Jeremy Bell. Frolicking in the Caribbean with the sensual doctor is making Angelina believe in the power of passion. But what happens once they sail into port? Will her shipboard romance get hit with a reality check?

      Jeremy doesn’t want the passionate music he and Angelina make to ever stop. From the exotic island of Puerto Rico to the sun-kissed beaches of Miami, he’s pursuing the woman of his dreams. But Jeremy will lose Angelina unless he can prove to her that they share something special—a rare love they’ll never find again on land or sea….

      Angelina woke up wrapped in Jeremy’s arms, weak from the pleasures of the previous night. She looked at her watch and closed her eyes again. They only had two more full days together—today and tomorrow. What would happen then?

      She tried to move from within his arms without disturbing him, but as she shifted away from him, he shifted closer, holding her tighter. She tried again, and the same thing happened. On the third try, low grumbling laughter came from deep in his chest.

      “Are you trying to get away?” he asked.

      “Yes, I am. And you’re wide-awake.”

      “It’s early, and I like holding you.”

      “Well I have a day planned.”

      He opened his eyes, “Are you going ashore?”

      “We could later, but I have a spa appointment this morning.”

      “I see. And you were trying to sneak away.”

      He chuckled, grabbing her firmly by the hips and pulling her against the length of his body.

      Dear Reader,

      A poet once said that there’s nothing better than having someone with whom to dream. Our dreams then seem more possible, more viable, more workable, more real. Sharing a good romance novel does the same thing. It allows us to dream together, making us kindred spirits, so that love becomes more possible, more viable, more real in our own lives.

      I hope that this novel connects us across such a dream. It is the story of Angelina Lewis and Jeremy Bell, whose story is about learning to embrace the possibility of love and accepting the thrill of the sensual side that lives in each of us.

      I am already at work on my next romance project, and I would love to hear your thoughts on this book. Please write me at [email protected].

      Warm wishes,

      Yasmin

      For my mother, father, brother and grandmother,

       who have given me the richness of the human heart;

       for Jennie and Tanya, who have been my sister-friends;

       for Madeline, Freddie and William, who have shaped my vision of love;

      and for Vionette and Lois, who have inspired the romantic in me.
