What to expect

A trip of a lifetime. A dream destination. And an unexpected roommate…

‘A simply gorgeous slow-burning love story’. Natasha Harding, Sun

Maya is careful and meticulous. She never makes a decision without weighing the pros and cons first. And she’s been planning her dream getaway for a long time.

Alex is laid back and spontaneous. He figures you can’t control what happens in life, so why try? When he sees an incredible offer on a luxury holiday, he books it without a second thought.

It's only when they arrive at the 5-star resort that they learn there's a problem: somehow they've ended up booked into the same room.

Neither is going to give up a holiday of a lifetime. Could Maya and Alex learn that opposites really do attract?
