My Review:I loved the premise of this book. Max is a workaholic who counts on Kara being there for him. He's wildly attracted to her, but doesn't want to ruin their working relationship by mixing things up. What he doesn't realize is that she's fed up...with him. When she has to cancel her 30th birthday cruise to accompany him on a last-minute business trip, that's the last straw for her. She plans to quit as soon as they return back. The thing is, they never make it to their destination. The engines of their plane (both of them) explode and they have to crash land in the Caribbean. I really enjoyed that part of the story and was honestly a little disappointed that they weren't stranded for longer than they were. BUT it was long enough for things to become hot and heavy between them...which then makes things awkward when they get back home.This was a hot little novella. Kara is at the point where she doesn't even like Max anymore because he's run her ragged. For his part, he works so hard to keep his mind off Kara. He has no real concept that he's working her too hard. He's a driven guy. Max was such a guy in this book...just completely clueless about the affect that he's having, but I liked that about the story. I liked that he is so caught up in his infatuation of Kara that he's really not seeing her anymore. The time on the island shakes up everything they know about each other by putting them in a completely different circumstance.I loved how differently the two of them viewed their relationship when they got back. It was completely the opposite of the way that men and women usually view these things and I liked that shake-up of the situation. I enjoyed both these characters and the whole set-up of the story. I would have liked a tiny bit more development of the relationship between the two of them, but overall, it was an entertaining read.I received a complimentary copy of this book in return for an honest review.
