Sea Change — P.G. Forte

When the going gets tough...the tough go cruising.

Love is supposed to overcome any obstacles -- that's what Cara always thought. But when love alone is not enough to help her overcome the trauma in her past, she knows it's time to get creative.

Surely a change of scenery would help. A week at sea -- new faces, new places, a fresh start with no expectations -- how could that be anything but fun? At least that's what her boyfriend Liam thinks when he books them on a romantic cruise vacation along the California coast.

Cara's not so sure. Though she thinks the trip is likely to be a lot of things -- memorable, life altering, a turning point. Fun isn't one of them.

But, with so much at stake, and a New Year fast approaching, they're both willing to try just about anything.
