REVIEW: Second Chance Honeymoon by Ally Blake

In Second Chance Honeymoon by Ally Blake, Juliana Jones (JJ) is at a down point in her life and is looking forward to the cruise she’s about to embark on. She has no luck with jobs or relationships and she’s never really settled with anything. The cruise is just what she needs to pick herself back up! The cruise turns out to be more of a surprise than she’d anticipated when she realizes she’s on a Second Honeymoon cruise, and the other passengers are all much older…not a single hot young guy among them.

Kane is the fitness director on JJ’s cruise, and he’s running from shadows in his own past. From the moment JJ runs into him there is an instant attraction on both sides and he might not be as off limits as she thought. JJ is just looking for a fun fling and the thought of anything else could send her running…and a fun on board fling that soon becomes hot and heavy threatens to do just that. As far as JJ’s concerned she has no chance at any kind of forever, she’s no good at that. But Kane might be the one to change all that if she’ll let him get close enough to have a chance. But will she?

Second Chance Honeymoon is a fast paced, light hearted, great romantic escape read. Ally gives us a lot of humor interspersed with more serious elements in Second Chance Honeymoon, and some great meddling secondary characters who are hilarious all by themselves. I really liked the interactions between all of the characters. Second Chance Honeymoon is a novella that is the perfect length for the story being told, that focuses on the present of JJ and Kane.

I’d recommend to romance readers looking for a fun read!

WRONG PLACE, WRONG TIME, RIGHT GUY?
Juliana Jones is twenty-seven, single (divorced) and out of work (again). But for the next eight days none of that matters. A citizen of the Royal Pacific cruise ship, she’s going to put it all behind her and with the aid of sun, rum and fun she’s gonna get her wild on. Then JJ discovers that she’s on a Second Honeymoon Cruise and is the only unattached passenger on board and the only one under the age of sixty!

Enter Kane Phillips, former star athlete turned ship’s fitness director. Kane can make JJ’s knees melt with a glance, but he’s staff and therefore off limits (right?). Besides, JJ’s not looking for a guy who has faced his own disaster and come out the other side of it all self-aware and ready for a relationship. Better to leave relationships to those who know how to tend one. But JJ’s feelings for Kane are growing and she has nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, and even if she could run…
Is Kane just the man to keep up with her?
