2 of 5 stars. The protagonists were childhood friends, separated for many years, who meet again under damsel-in-distress/white-knight circumstances. The story takes place primarily aboard ship and in America. There's all the 'we can't, but I want to, but we can't' tension; they have sex while one is incoherent (and subsequently doesn't remember). A pregnancy brings them together midway, and the distress plot carries the rest of the novel. This is one heroine who can take care of herself, although with "Home Alone" like antics. I found the dialogue a little flat, the characters not much more 3-dimensional, and the plot so-so. Overall, I could have put it down anytime.
