About this ebook

Yuki Yamimoto has a problem with billionaires. If only she wasn’t stuck in a luxury resort with one billionaire in particular!

Yuki agrees to be her friend Sinead’s bridesmaid at her second wedding in a heartbeat. She’s a flight attendant and used to jetting around the world, but staying at a luxury resort in Thailand for Sinead and Gabriel’s renewal of vows sounds amazing – like a mini vacation. The only problem is. . . Declan Moriarty.

Years ago, Yuki and Declan shared a mind-blowing one-night stand and a few weeks of bliss, and then nothing. Nada. Was it all a dream? Or a nightmare? Because he cheated on her with his ex-fiancée and Yuki left before he could break her heart. Declan was Yuki’s big fish, the one who got away. An Irish IT geek and billionaire built like a pro rugby player with bonus soulful blue eyes and dark wavy hair.

Yuki has a sinking feeling Declan will also be at the resort for the wedding celebration. Declan is a good friend of Gabriel’s after all. But she won’t have to hang out with him, surely? Yuki doesn’t believe in second chances anymore. Besides, Yuki’s just been dumped and humiliated and all she wants is rest and relaxation on this layover.

Declan no longer believes in love. In fact, he’s probably cursed. Yuki isn’t the only woman who ran from him or broke his heart. When he sees Yuki at the airport, he can’t take his eyes off her. She’s as gorgeous as ever. Maybe his luck is changing. Another fling might be just what fate has in mind!

A feel good, second chance romcom novella with steamy scenes. And a monkey. This book is #2 in the Girl on a Plane series by Cassandra O’Leary.

I picked up the book because I thought a novella with a tropical wedding theme in my favorite genre, romcom, would be quite fun. What I liked: • Loved the wedding scenes! • I also liked the side characters and I can see why this series has been a hit between fans. I'll pick up other books of the series too in the future! What I wasn't a fan of: Sadly, the book is more on the romance part than on the comedy. Instead of spicy scenes, I think they should've been better spent on adding depth to the characters. Overall, 2.5 stars. I received an e-arc of the book from Booksirens free of charge but it doesn't change the view.

This is such a cute story. It does have a little mention of some relationship trauma in the red-carpet light but it's not bad. I love how Declan goes out of his way for Yuki. I love the idea of a married couple redoing their vows with a whole new wedding. This is exactly what Declan's and Yuki's friends are doing in paradise. Who doesn't love paradise. This story is about Yuki and her life.
