All aboard the Celtic Dream as she sets sail on a magical Highland escape around the Scottish Isles…
When widow Maggie Blenkenship books a Scottish cruise to celebrate her seventieth birthday, she expects breathtaking scenery and quality time with her sister. She doesn't expect to fall in love. Joined by a colourful cast of fellow passengers – a secretive actress battling frightening memory loss, a sharp-tongued expat running from family ghosts, and a reserved gentleman haunted by his late father's wartime secret – Maggie discovers that the open sea has a way of loosening hearts and unlocking truths.
As the Celtic Dream weaves through the dramatic Scottish isles, unlikely friendships form, long-buried secrets surface, unexpectedly, and right on time… The Scottish Cruise is a warm and witty story about second chances, the courage to begin again, and the beautiful, surprising things that can happen when you finally step out of the shadows.

" The Arctic Cruise is another wonderful story by this talented writer who knows how to bring her characters alive and who writes her warm-hearted stories with such passion. Sailing into Norway was such a treat and so well described that I really felt as though I was aboard, experiencing all the exciting sights of a winter cruise, on a fabulous ship, and with the delicious chill of a romantic Arctic adventure."
