Another MacGregor story. This one about Serena MacGregor and Justin Blade.
Robin M. (robinmy) -
Wanting to experience life and not be a pampered rich girl, Serena MacGregor works as a dealer in a casino aboard a cruise ship. There she meets handsome Justin Blade, a gambler who shows his interest in her. Justin takes her on a beach picnic and seems to be everywhere that Serena is on the ship. Serena is attracted to Justin, but he is not the kind of adventure she had in mind.
This story is a typical category romance from the 1980's. Hero sees a woman he wants, pursues her throughout the book, and doesn't take "no" for an answer. Thankfully, when Serena and Justin get off the cruise ship in the second half of the book, the story improve immensely. I thought Serena was a strong independent heroine. Justin grew on me in the second half of the book. My rating: 3 Stars.
