title: Perfect Timing
author: Jackson, Brenda
description: Once Maxine Chandler and Mya Rivers were "sisters" by choice. Meeting as girls on a Savannah playground, they shared a special bond--until time, distance, and misunderstandings chilled their relationship. Today, as a class reunion cruise to the Caribbean brings them together for the first time in years, Maxi and Mya, both approaching turning points in their lives, find they need each other more than ever.
  
  Maxi lost her fiance in a tragic accident. Now she's facing a serious illness and watching her cherished dreams of family and motherhood die. She never expects her shipboard romance with Christopher Chandler, high school rebel now grown into a successful and dangerously sensual man, to be more than a distraction. But then he offers her a gift so profound she can't refuse it--even when it leaves her vulnerable to crushing loss.
  
  Mya is onboard with her handsome husband, Garrett. The Rivers' marriage has always seemed blessed--they have passion, respect, a lovely home, and beautiful twins. Yet Mya can no longer deny that the calm surface of their lives hides a growing turbulence. With her demanding career making her a stranger in her own home, Mya fears Garrett has been lured into the arms of another woman.
