Sinopsis

He can successfully throw a precision pass, but heâÇÖs dead in the water in matters of the heart...Quarterback Maine Fitzgerald has struck out with more women than heâÇÖd like to admit-and he doesnâÇÖt even play baseball. Armed with a plan to get out of his comfort zone onboard a singles cruise, he joins the very first event: a mix and mingle.Too bad heâÇÖs almost completely deaf in one ear and doesnâÇÖt hear the beautiful blonde tell him her name.Orchid Stone doesnâÇÖt want to be on the singles cruise. She has an eight-year-old daughter to tend to, and a job to do, and a husband to mourn. But her sisters think eight years is long enough to mourn, and she promises them sheâÇÖll at least try to meet someone on the cruise.She canâÇÖt help it if the meathead quarterback isnâÇÖt interested.When a tsunami strikes their ship, sheâÇÖs forced overboard with Maine and a security guard, and they make their way to a deserted island. Desperate to get back to her daughter, Orchid will do anything to survive. She climbs rock walls, escapes from wild boars, and plucks chickens.She knows sheâÇÖs lucky to be washed up on an old World War II outpost, complete with an overgrown garden and a herd of wild chickens, but she needs to get home. Maine does too-but heâÇÖs scared of the man heâÇÖll have to be once he leaves the island.HeâÇÖs sure Orchid wonâÇÖt want to be with him once he has to go back to the public persona of Perfect Quarterback Maine Fitzgerald.áCan Orchid and Maine make things work between them when theyâÇÖre so different? Or will their time stranded together be all they get?
