This was so cute. There’s a goofy premise: two people stuck on a small cruise ship together for a week because of work (well, three people with her sister). I love a goofy premise! It’s rival coworkers to lovers. The romance was slow and adorable. And there were so many wonderful descriptions of the Galapagos and the scenery and wildlife (though it did make me jealous since I'm stuck in Minnesota in the middle of winter).
I admit the reason for them being “enemies†is pretty dumb, but at the same time I appreciated that because it seems realistic to read too much into something that happened and then to invent these false stories in your head. I like that Henley was obviously flawed but she could still see reason when things were presented to her. The ending was also a little rushed and convenient, but it was still satisfying enough overall. Note: it's a romance book, but it wasn't steamy at all - I kind of prefer that actually, but wanted to note because I was expecting those scenes and they weren't here.
