About the book
Kari Langtree is afraid to give her heart away; it seems that every time she loves someone, she has to say goodbye. Her father died two years ago, and now her favorite sister has gotten married. The pain of another goodbye is more than Kari can stand. So when she meets Noah Walters on a cruise to the Caribbean, Kari's careful not to risk falling in love. After all, the trip is only a week long; she doesn't want to end up with a broken heart when Noah goes home with his family. But little by little, Kari feels her defenses weakening. She can't resist Noah's warm smile or the way he lightens even her darkest moods. She knows she's setting herself up for heartache, but maybe this time it will be different.
