Until I Met You

May 1, 2023
2019 Love Island winner Gill shines in her fresh and flirty debut. Inspirational travel blogger Samantha Roberts is excited about escaping to Tobago with the love of her life to attend her friend Naomi’s destination wedding—and hopefully get a proposal of her own. Instead, she gets dumped and finds herself flying solo. Despite her heartbreak, she’s determined to make the best of her time in the Caribbean. Enter Roman Carver, a strikingly handsome former Wall Street broker who left the corporate grind behind to move to the island and help his grandparents run their store. Samantha and Rowan’s bond is instant, even though they try to fight it, wary of putting their hearts on the line. Samantha takes inspiration from Naomi’s relationship, which she’s always thought of as perfect. When a family crisis almost derails the wedding and secrets come out on all sides, however, Samantha realizes the hard work behind every happy ever after. Gill uses this breezy tale to drive home the message that everyone deserves love, regardless of their flaws—and to emphasize the vulnerability required to make a relationship work. Add in plenty of sun and sand, and this charming romance just works.
