"A Change of Plans" by Donna Weaver - NEW from Rhemalda!


You might remember from my cover reveal on this book that A Change of Plans was to be released on June 1, 2012.  Well, it is now available on all platforms, so I'm going to provide you a bit more information!

A Change of Plans is a New Adult book, which means it has been written to appeal to people who are recently graduated from college and just going out on their own.  Here is a bit more info about A Change of Plans (and you may or may not have noticed, but each mention of the title provides a link to a different place.  First Rhemalda directly, then Amazon, then B&N.com, so you can just click to go and pick it up wherever you prefer!). Be sure to check out the GIVEAWAY and cool trailer at the end!




Blurb:

When Lyn sets off on her supposedly uncomplicated and unromantic cruise, she never dreams it will include pirates. All the 25-year-old, Colorado high school teacher wants to do is forget that her dead fiancé was a cheating scumbag. Lyn plans a vacation diversion; fate provides Braedon, an intriguing surgeon. She finds herself drawn to him: his gentle humor, his love of music, and even his willingness to let her take him down during morning karate practices. Against the backdrop of the ship's make-believe world and temporary friendships, her emotions come alive.

However, fear is an emotion, too. Unaware of the sensitive waters he's navigating, Braedon moves to take their relationship beyond friendship--on the very anniversary Lyn is on the cruise to forget. Lyn's painful memories are too powerful, and she runs from Braedon and what he has to offer.

Their confusing relationship is bad enough, but when the pair finds themselves on one of the cruise's snorkeling excursions in American Samoa things get worse. Paradise turns to piracy when their party is kidnapped and Lyn's fear of a fairytale turns grim. Now she must fight alongside the man she rejected, first for their freedom and then against storms, sharks, and shipwreck.
