Loved this! Such a fun read and can't believe the whole book was just two people stuck on a boat with no flashbacks. That's some impressive storytelling. Loved the epilogue at the end. Did not love the twist (spat my drink across the room the moment I figured it out) I thought it was a low blow...and I ended up really not liking Penny - she was a shitty best friend. But I guess it did tie everything up nicely sooo maybe it wasn't that bad?

Beth O’Leary knows how to tell a story!! A one night stand stranded on a house boat lost at seas!?! How comes up with this stuff?? As always her characters are brilliant, her stories keep me coming back for more, and I’m recommending this to all of my friends.
