The best of this series so far - I am not reading them in order. She's smart and resourceful, he's not an alphajerk. The situation - even the cruise ship - is closer to realistic than other similar books. The instalust is there, but the reasons why they each don't commit are believable. Yes, there's a misunderstanding, but it isn't a big, stupid misunderstanding and they each think they are talking about it. So for a short read and the start to a series, it's good.
