I am delighted to feature another romcom by Phoebe MacLeod.<\/b> Hook, Line and … Single<\/i> was published by Boldwood Books <\/b>on February 17th.
\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Ruby may be young, free and single\u2026 but she\u2019s absolutely not
\nready to mingle.<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Ruby is happily sworn off men. There\u2019s nothing she needs
\nthat can\u2019t get from her friends, cat or, frankly, the wonders of modern
\ntechnology. So when her flatmate tricks her into going on a singles cruise,
\nshe\u2019s furious.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thankfully, Ruby isn\u2019t the only one onboard under false
\npretences. Cameron also had no idea what he was letting himself in for. So
\nafter Ruby and Cameron strike up conversation, they agree to platonically pair
\noff, to protect each other from the flirtatious advances of the other guests \u2013
\nnot to mention the matchmaking efforts of Barry, the enthusiastic host.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s just one problem. Cameron isn\u2019t just in the same
\nboat as Ruby \u2013 he\u2019s also good looking, kind and fun. As they explore the
\npicturesque towns of the Mediterranean, Ruby finds herself enjoying his company
\nmuch more than she\u2019d intended.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can Ruby keep her heart safe, or will she be in too deep by
\nthe time the boat docks at its final destination?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0My Thoughts<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

This is a fun, light-hearted read with plenty of humour and a dollop of romance. Ruby finds herself on a singles cruise that she wasn’t expecting and rises to the challenge with wry humour and a determination to make the most of it. She meets Cameron who has a similar aversion to finding a new romantic partner so they buddy up to try to fool everyone so that they will be left alone.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I enjoyed the escapades in the different ports. Ruby and Cameron meet some interesting characters and find themselves in a race against their cruise ship.\u00a0 Ruby’s friend, Sam, is a strong supporting character who is as determined to find love as Ruby is to avoid it. This would be a great holiday read and one to note down for the summer, especially if you are travelling.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In short: lively plot and likeable characters
