Synopsis:
An illicit affair with her boss loses
Ashleigh Brennan her job along with her dignity. Untrusting of men in
general, she vows never to be misled by first impressions again—until she
meets wealthy, handsome Remmao Kamal. He’s full of passion and eastern
promise—but for how long?
It’s hard to believe that this millionaire isn’t married, but his playboy
lifestyle aboard his yacht has had its repercussions. After a succession of
harbor pickups, his misjudgement of a lover’s intention put his life at
risk. Since then, he has been determined to put his womanising days behind
him—until Ashleigh walks into his life.
Their sexual attraction is immediate and the temptation for Remmao to break
his vow of harbor celibacy is as strong as Ashleigh’s desire to protect her
heart. But will a one-night stand with no commitments be enough for them?

I can honestly say, while reading
Hibiscus Bay, I was touched by the beautiful twist of fate for
Ashleigh and Rammao. This is the kind of romance we all dream of.
Ashleigh's main goal on her vacation was to erase the last three years of
her past relationship with Richard (ex-lover/ex-boss and married). She never
expected fate to intervene and send her the love she has always dreamed of
having. Rammao (dashing and sexy) never had much time for true lasting
relationships since he consistently sails around the world. Suddenly, he is
locking eyes with Ashleigh after her sunglasses fall onto the deck of his
yacht and its' kismet!!
Throughout the story, Ashleigh and Rammao find themselves freeing all the
emotional pain from the past and learning once again the meaning of trust,
promises and love.
Debby Allen captured so many heartwarming emotions of both her characters.
The story inspires the reader to wish for Hibiscus Bay and a pair of
sunglasses.......wonderful job Debby!!
