I've known Bentley for my entire life, well since high school, but we've always kept it platonic until he surprises me on the cruise with an upgrade a week I never could imagine. I'm completely thrown for a loop when he admits his feelings for me. Bentley can have any girl he wants but he wants me. This seems like a plot out of one of my books...but could it be real?

I surprise Ariana with an upgraded suite with me for her latest success, but that's not all I surprise her with. She writes romance novels, but I'm about to give her the most romantic vacation she could imagine. I've loved her since we were in high school, but never told her. Now, I'm not losing that chance again. I can have any woman in the world, but I only want her.
