Floating Into Love

A team building event gone wrong.
Now theyre up the creek without a paddle.
Can love bring them home?

Wanda Irwin is too busy with her thriving greenhouse and plant rental company to attend a mandatory team building exercise. Unfortunately, her biggest client, Varner Industries, requires her participation to renew her contract. The only upside is that it is canoeing, and shes an expert. The downside? Her partner is the CEO.

Nobody tells CEO Eric Varner what to do ... except his mother, and shes insisting he get out in the sun by taking part in a company-wide ten-day canoe trip. Hes hoping the trip is trouble-free, because he knows nothing about canoeing. He isnt planning on having fun, and he sure isnt counting on Wandas dynamic and compelling personality.

Can they work together to survive when they end up stranded on the side of the river with no help in sight?

One country. Endless wrong turns. All the right reasons to fall in love.
