Whims of the Fates Leslie Stone

Publisher Marketing: For Grant Albright, life is just one big crapshoot. But his winning streak has come to a heartbreaking end. So with a gambler's daring, he and his wealthy and affable friend Mitch hatch a plan to get Grant's mojo back. They concoct an amusing scheme to pass the time while on a Mediterranean cruise-a sizable side bet on who will get lucky first. Their plans hit an unexpected rough patch when they discover that a group of hometown friends are also on the cruise. The two men must now tread lightly to find a way to work their charms without destroying their reputations back home. And to make matters worse, their wholesome hometown neighbors insist on including the two young men in all of their plans. In order to keep what happens at sea at sea, the two players must be twice as clever and extra discreet. Enticed by the sexy Jodee and intrigued by the reserved beauty of Shay, Grant must decide if he will roll the romance dice one more time and risk losing the bet-or fold and risk losing his chance at love. Set along the beautiful shores of the Aegean and Adriatic Seas, Whims of the Fates takes readers on a luxurious and romantic virtual vacation at sea, filled with the ancient wonders of Turkey, Greece, and Italy-and all the simmering, erotic potential of the region.
