She thought she’d already had her forever. He never believed in it at all.
Gabriella Cunningham knows what real love feels like, and she lost it. After twelve years of marriage to her soulmate, grief became her constant companion. Safe. Heavy. Untouchable. Loving again was never part of the plan.
Until her best friend drags her onto a four-week singles cruise filled with sunshine, cocktails, and strangers chasing connection.
Dean Matthews has spent years behind cruise ship bars perfecting his grin, his charm, and his no-strings-attached reputation. Love was never part of the job description. But Gabby isn’t like the others. She’s guarded, quietly strong, and completely immune to his usual lines.
And that unsettles him.
As the ship sails across endless blue, attraction turns into something deeper, something neither of them expected. But while Dean struggles with feelings he doesn’t understand, Gabby must decide if risking her heart again means betraying the love she once lost… or honouring it.
Uncharted Waters is a heartfelt, emotional journey of grief, healing, courage, and discovering that love doesn’t replace what was lost, it expands it.
