As Ethan works to breathe new life into her home, the sparks between them are instant. But can they both move beyond their pasts—her broken heart, his grief—for a second chance at love?

Would you travel the world with a perfect stranger?

From #1 International Bestselling Author Heather Grace Stewart comes a laugh-out-loud romantic comedy packed with heart, humor, and global adventure.

Pete McCarney, a bachelor and newscaster, buys two plane tickets for a trip around the world with his girlfriend. But when they break up just before departure—and the tickets are non-refundable—he makes a bold move: posting on social media for women with her exact name to join him.

Twenty-one women apply. The interview process? Awkward. Hilarious. Possibly illegal.

Enter Allie James—a feisty, recently-divorced lawyer who’s sworn off men. She’s not looking for love, just a break from her life. Pete’s not looking for love either… but the universe has other plans.

From Bali to Paris, their whirlwind trip is filled with quirky adventures, slow-burn chemistry, and moments that challenge everything they thought they wanted. Will they get the vacation they hoped for—or something far more life-changing?

? Heather’s Heat Scale™ – Level 2 Spice ??
Level 2: Open-door intimacy with emotional depth. Think fogged mirrors, whispered confessions, and just enough steam to leave handprints.

Expect witty banter and slow-burn romance that builds to satisfying, spicy moments. Heather’s stories are known for their heart, humor, and heat—always with characters you’ll root for and romances that feel real.
