    About this ebook

    Libby's life is starting to come together, and now she's setting off on a private jet with billionaire Flint Young to help complete a new real estate deal.

    She's only really along to gain experience, fresh out of law school as she is, but still it's the opportunity of a lifetime.

    However, soon that opportunity turns to calamity, and the private jet taking them from LA to Sydney crashes somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. After knocking her head during the crash, Libby passes out to find herself alone on a tropical beach.

    Only she's not alone. Someone's bandaged her head and saved her from drowning. Someone's watching over her. And that someone is Flint Young.

    The only two survivors, he assures her that they'll be rescued, but as the hours turn to days, and the days turn to weeks, soon they're having to use their wits to stay alive.

    And gradually, as Libby overcomes the trauma of the crash and the desolation of the island, she begins to realize that being stranded with a billionaire like Flint Young isn't so bad after all...

    PART ONE of THREE. Readers should be 18+ for sexy scenes and swearing!

      Prologue

      I wake from a hazy dream with a heavy jolt.

      Sorry for the disturbance, folks. We're just hitting a patch of turbulence, so buckle up tight because this one's looking rough.

      The blasé tone of the pilot helps put me at ease, but I'm still clutching tight at the arm of my chair. I suppose he's been through this a million times before.

      Stay calm, Libby, you're more likely to win the lottery than die in a plane crash.

      Around me I see a few alarmed expressions, but most look pretty relaxed. The private jet is small, only carrying a capacity of 20 excluding staff, and we're just about maxed out.

      Still, the plane rumbles and shakes and drops periodically in the sky, and I feel my head about to explode from the weird changes in air pressure. I quickly fasten my belt and tuck myself in tight as an air hostess darts for her own seat at the front of the plane.

      To my right across the aisle, my colleague Benjy sits with a placid expression. In fact, he looks like he's almost enjoying it, with a light in his eyes and the hint of a smile on his face.

      You OK there, Lib? he asks.

      Fine, just fine, Ben. Thanks for asking.

      He laughs at the obvious fact that I'm clearly not fine.

      I wouldn't worry, I've been through this shit a hundred times. You kinda learn to enjoy it, you know, like a roller coaster ride. In fact, you'd be more likely to die on one of those probably...

      "Um...I'd rather if you didn't use the word die right now if that's OK."

      Sure thing. I'll keep quiet.

      He runs his fingers over his mouth in a motion of zipping his lips, and relaxes back into his chair, the plane still bouncing and jolting around as if it's being shaken by the hand of God.

      I swear, every time I
