A Sudden Crush: An Enemies to Lovers Romantic Comedy

Joanna Price appears to have the life she always wanted: a job she loves as a book editor, a new marriage to Liam—a celebrated bestselling author—and a luxurious honeymoon in the Caribbean ahead of her. Her carefully arranged paradise takes a sharp turn when she is seated beside Connor Duffield on the flight. Connor is a gruff rancher from the Midwest, a practical country man with a dislike of city girls and little patience for Joanna’s world. Six hours beside each other would already be an ordeal for both of them, but a violent storm changes everything.

Joanna wakes to find herself stranded on a desert island with Connor, the last person she would have chosen as a companion. Her immediate concern is survival, but the circumstances raise larger questions: why are they alone, and what happened to Liam? As the dream honeymoon becomes a tropical nightmare, Joanna and Connor must contend with isolation, clashing personalities, and a situation neither could have imagined. Their uneasy partnership places the enemies-to-lovers tension at the center of a comic, romantic adventure without giving away where the crisis leads.
