Abigail Baskin met and fell in love with millionaire Bruce Lamb. After a whirlwind courtship, they became engaged. While on a bachelorette weekend with some friends, Abigail meets Scott Baumgart and has a drunken one-night stand. Writing that night off to too much alcohol, Abigail marries Bruce, and they go on their honeymoon to a remote island resort off the coast of Maine. The honeymoon is just beginning when she realizes that Scott is on the island too. He insists that he is the man for her and wants to win her back.

This book got off to a slow start. The first 1/4 of the book was reading about Abigail's past relationships and her bachelorette weekend. I didn't like Abigail at all and wasn't endeared by Bruce either. The story started getting interesting when they arrived on the island. After that, I wasn't sure what would happen next. I'll stop there since I don't want to give anything away. Overall, I'll say it was a good premise that really didn't work for me. I would call it implausible but entertaining. My rating: 2.5 Stars.
