A review by deanie
Lost in Paradise by Rachel Lacey
4.0
Bisexual divorcee Nicole Morella is reclaiming her identity after the collapse of her marriage by pampering herself with a Mediterranean yacht cruise. On the ship, she meets Fiona Broome, a British expat artist living in France -- and sparks fly. Until their ship is boarded by pirates looking to hold the passengers for ransom, and Nicole and Fiona escape in a lifeboat, only to be stranded on a deserted Mediterranean island together.
In addition to being a fun stranded-on-a-deserted-island book, this novel is also a much deeper exploration of sexuality and new relationships. Fiona's worried that she's just Nicole's post-divorce rebound and Nicole is afraid that commitment-phobic Fiona will never be ready for a real relationship. Plus, there's a lot of family drama, too, which makes this an even richer book.
