About this audiobook
A paradise island. Two strangers. The attraction they never saw coming…
When Eden dumped her cheating ex before the wedding, the last thing she expected was to go on their tropical honeymoon alone. But with no refunds possible, she packs her budget guidebook and broken heart, and sets off.
She plans to relax on the beach, swim in the ocean, and drink cocktails until she feels like herself again… or falls over. Whichever comes first. What she’s not expecting is the brusque, handsome stranger who sits down at her table on the first night.
Philip Meyer is a grumpy workaholic, and so irritatingly cynical that it makes her forget she’s grieving just to prove him wrong about the world. The two have nothing in common… except trying to forget who they’ve left behind.
The luxury resort isn’t too big, and fate soon pushes them together again. And again. Catamaran cruises and midnight swims give way to late night room service and whispered nothings. Maybe opposites really do attract.
But every vacation has to end, even the very best ones… Can these two opposites make it last?

 How to Honeymoon Alone is the perfect summer read that you can devour in a day. I loved so much about Eden and Philips's romance. Eden is the sunshine to Philip's grumpy and she really brings out the fun and spontaneous side to Philip - who's a work acholic.
 Their story is comical and spicy with no boring filler. Their relationship goes from feisty to friendship with the fake dating in between adding to the build-up of tension. The story started interesting and ended just the same. I was hanging on the edge of my seat by the end just to make sure they got their HEA. I'm not a fan of the miscommunication trope and that's the one trope that was added to their storyline which hindered their progress a little but they managed to get there in the end!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Jun 1, 2024 I love this book! I just wish there's the ml's, Phillip, version.... it would make into a better story
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Apr 28, 2024 It took a bit to get into but once I did I found it a really A light and fun read. I even found myself laughing several times at what the main character said or thought. It was nice to read something that felt real.
