Jenny Denton is working on starting up her own advertising
agency and the possible client Valhalla Cruise Line might
just be the OCEAN OF DREAMS that she needs. After receiving
word from them that they liked her ideas and offered her a
free cruise to get a better feel for the company she
excitedly runs to tell her fiancé the good news. Instead of
the thrill she expects she finds him in an act of betrayal
with her best friend.
Having made arrangements to take the cruise by herself,
it's all for business, the last thing she wants is
complications. Everything goes well until she meets up with
a fellow traveler who has lost her luggage and finds out
she is actually her roommate. It's all good, a recently
divorced woman who is ready to relax and enjoy for the
first time in years might be just what she needs. Then on a
fire drill she sees something that just might complicate
things even more. Chief Officer Senior Kirk Moen is
gorgeous and she is not going there.
The first site of Jenny Denton has Kirk intrigued. But when
she thinks he is just one of the "White Wolves" she isn't
about to get involved. White Wolves are uniformed officers
that charm and romance passengers on board the cruise, wave
goodbye when it's over, then start again with the next
one. How can he prove that this is more than a ship board
romance?
OCEAN OF DREAMS was originally released in 1991 but has the
quick paced, warm romantic feel that is loved today. The
characters are realistic and fascinating as is the
descriptive writing that gives the reader the feeling they
are on this cruise, seeing the sites and experiencing the
journey. Fantastic look back but still a feel good read.
Can a shipboard romance ever survive on dry land?
After suffering a romantic betrayal at the hands of her
fiancé, the last thing Jenny Denton’s looking for is love.
But when her job takes her on a cruise to Norway, she finds
herself helpless to resist handsome ship’s officer, Kirk Moen.
Kirk’s one of the notorious “White Wolves”—uniformed
officers known for charming and romancing female
passengers—and Jenny vows not to let her heart get involved.
But romantic, moonlit nights and sunny days together leave
Jenny feeling confused. Is what she feels for Kirk real? Or
is she fated to be left alone at port, as her shipboard love
sails off without her?
