A cowboy, a cruise, and a meddling grandma—what could go wrong?
JJ McKade expected to spend two weeks with his grandmother at her condo in sunny Florida, celebrating her birthday. Instead, he got shanghaied by his mischievous grandma on a Caribbean cruise—complete with hot pink luggage, a gaggle of giggling octogenarians, and a humiliating childhood nickname haunting his every move.
Between meddling matchmakers, unexpected friendships, and the endless chaos of cruise life, JJ can’t help being drawn to Kinsley Kline, the ship’s enchanting horticulturist. There’s just one catch: crew fraternizing with passengers is strictly forbidden.
With only a few months left in her contract aboard The Affinity, Kinsley can’t let anything rock her boat or derail her plans. Then the arrival of a hunky cowboy on the ship makes her question if some rules are meant to be broken, and a little boat rocking is a good thing.
From sun-drenched beaches to moonlit strolls, JJ and Kinsley must decide if an onboard romance can last on land, and if love is worth risking their hearts.
About The Author
My Review
This book start is about a hardworking cowboy whose quiet birthday visit to his grandmother turns into a wildly unexpected adventure at sea. In Roped Into Paradise, Shanna Hatfield delivers a charming, feel-good romance filled with humor, heart, and plenty of surprises.
JJ McKade flies to Florida each year to celebrate his beloved grandmother’s birthday, expecting nothing more than cake and family time. Instead, for her 80th birthday, Grams shocks him with a spontaneous cruise—complete with a 4 a.m. shopping spree for clothes far removed from his usual jeans and boots. Exhausted but devoted, JJ gamely agrees, proving there’s nothing he wouldn’t do for his sweet Grams.
Things truly take off when he collides—almost literally—with a cruise line horticulturist, saving her lilies and possibly losing his heart in the process. Their instant chemistry is swoony and sweet, unfolding against the lively backdrop of a cruise filled with spirited octogenarians.
Fast-paced, witty, and delightfully wholesome, this story blends fish-out-of-water comedy with tender romance, creating a refreshing escape brimming with warmth and joy.
