July: Swept Away by: Beth O’Leary

Hello lovely people!

I am so excited for this month’s book! Last August’s pick was my first Beth O’Leary book and I cannot wait to read another of hers. It seems like it’ll have the perfect summer vibe.

This month we are reading Swept Away by Beth O’Leary.

The synopsis for this book is posted below.

Please join us at the Brewhouse and Kitchen in Cheltenham for a chat about this book! I will have some guiding questions for us, but please come with any of your own. What did you like? What did you not like/bothered you? Was it too steamy for you or not steamy enough?

Synopsis:

Lexi is looking for no-strings-attached fun with a stranger. She deserves one night for herself, doesn't she?

Zeke is looking for love. But for one night with a woman like Lexi, he'll break his rules . . .

Sparks fly at the pub, one passionate kiss leads to another and they end up stumbling home to the marina together.

The next morning, hungover and shaken by an amazing night together, Lexi is more than ready for Zeke to leave. There's just one small problem . . . the houseboat they stayed on has been swept out to sea.

As their supplies start to run dangerously low, and the waves pick up, Zeke and Lexi soon realise there's much more on the line than their new relationship.

How long can they really survive on a drifting houseboat in the North Sea? Will search and rescue find them? And who will they be if they both make it back to dry land?
