They have been dating six months, but to Sadie that is not enough time while to Dylan he knows she is the one. In a fancy restaurant the lawyer goes on his knee to propose while Sadie chokes on her shrimp. She has doubts, but somehow her moth said yes instead of no as her mind kept encouraging her.

Dylan has all the qualities that a woman would want in a spouse. He is faithful, honest (please no lawyer comments), caring and makes good money. Yet the twenty-seven year old Sadie has doubts because so far he has not brought her hopes to life although she admits to herself he has no idea what they are. When she begins having nightmares and then hives, Sadie blames Dylan so she decides to raise the courtship to a different level. She flees to oversea sand dunes challenging him to follow. Dylan picks up the gauntlet as he knows she is his soulmate, but makes a few rule changes to her cat and mouse game so he can fulfill his dreams too.

Travelogues are not written quite like Alyssa Brooks provides them as readers will escape with this duo from Hawaii to Mexico to Egypt. This likable couple provides readers with a heated prelude to their marriage. Romance fans will enjoy the sensual encounters between Dylan and Sadie as each knows what he or she desires and sets forth to satiate those itches.
