Description

A beachy take on a classic romance from romcom author Sarah Ready.


Fun-loving Isla Waterstone loves her laid-back life on Mariposa Island. She has everything she could ever want...a great job as a journalist for the local paper, amazing friends, and pink sand beaches with stunning tropical sunsets.

The only problem with tiny tropical islands? There are more sea turtles than single men.

So when British billionaire Declan Fox and his aristocratic friend arrive, Isla's friends know this can mean only one thing.

Marriage.

After all, it's a truth universally acknowledged, when a single billionaire travels to a tropical island, he must be in want of a wife.

But Isla isn't convinced. Especially because Declan is the most rude, arrogant, prideful man she's ever met.

Or is he?


From tropical Mariposa to England and back again, this playful summer romcom, finds that first impressions don't always tell the whole story.

About the Author

Author Sarah Ready writes contemporary romance and romantic comedy. Her books have been described as "euphoric", "heartwarming" and "laugh out loud". Her debut novel The Fall in Love Checklist was hailed as "the unicorn read of 2020". She loves to write fast-paced, emotionally compelling romances about quirky, smart women and the men who love them. Before writing romance full-time Sarah had lots of fun teaching at an Ivy League. Then she realized she could have even more fun writing romance. Her favorite things after writing are adventuring and travel. You'll frequently find her using her degree at a dino dig site, crawling into a cave, snorkeling, or on horseback riding through the jungle - all fodder for her next book. She's lived in Scotland, Norway, Portugal, Switzerland and NYC. She currently lives in the Caribbean with her water-obsessed pup and her awesome family.
