    About this ebook

    Cyn Fuller needed a get-away. She hoped to escape the usual family drama by taking a cruise over Christmas, and she was looking forward to the experience of a lifetime.

    Her vacation wasn't one she expected...the single's cruise would have been perfect for her grandmother. Cyn was stuck for four days traveling with the geriatric crowd and fending off indecent proposals by much older men that popped Viagra like Pez candies.

    Marcus Nickels was the youngest man in the fleet to ever be appointed captain. He took his job seriously, and the Christmas holidays were simply work days. That is until he rescued a mocha beauty from the clutches of a very persistent elderly gentleman while in port.

    Then he saw her on deck and Marcus devised a plan of seduction guaranteed to make their holiday unforgettable.

      Chapter One

      Embarkation

      Docked in its berth, the huge ship loomed above her. Cyn stared up at the enormous white building in front of it with the decorative tile work depicting ocean scenes across its surface. Festive Christmas lights, gigantic pine trees and ornate decorations seemed out of place under the glaring light of the morning sun. She turned and almost tripped over the sidewalk, catching herself on the automobile’s door. Cyn leaned forward to pay the cab driver. He smiled widely at the size of his tip and jumped out the car to gather her luggage from the trunk.

      She stepped back up on the curb and waited patiently for the man to deposit her bags next to her feet. She drew her purse from her side and dug through it. Pulling out a few more dollars to add to the money she’d already given him as a tip, she wished him a Merry Christmas. The cabby nodded his thanks, ran back to the vehicle and jumped into the driver’s side, slamming the door as he pulled off.

      Cyn took a deep breath and turned around to face the port authority building. This was her time, her chance to grab the brass ring and live life to the fullest for once. When she’d heard about the cruise that was promoted almost exclusively to firemen, policemen and service workers of a similar ilk, she literally jumped on the opportunity to be on that ship. It would be a Christmas present to herself. After requesting her vacation time from her job as coordinator to the marketing department at a well-known retail clothing chain, she’d wiped out her savings. Cyn happily handed the travel agent a cashier’s check for the full amount for passage, booking herself a suite with a balcony. She’d kept just enough for a little spending money to buy whatever frivolous thing caught her fancy while she was on vacation. For the first time in her life she was going to put herself first.

      The ships lined up in the port. She counted three of the goliath-sized boats. Looking around her, she noticed several older people, singles and couples milling about. Shrugging, she turned back to the building that she was supposed to do her check in at.

      Ma’am?

      She turned her head to look over at the porter wearing a neat blue vest and cap over his clothing. He waited for her acknowledgement.

      I’m sorry? She stared at him.

      Your bags, ma’am, would you like me to check them in for you?

      Oh, sure … yes, please. She watched the jovial man heft her suitcases onto the metal dolly. He pulled the luggage-laden dolly behind him, its wheels creaking under the strain. Feeling self-conscious she made small talk while yanking her sweat-ridden top away from her sticky skin. How do you stand the heat?

      He glanced over his shoulder. You get used to it.

      She followed him as he effortlessly maneuvered through the growing crowd. Cyn stayed close. Those bags held her brand new wardrobe, and she wasn’t about to lose sight of them. He stepped up to a podium, signed some papers and tore them in strips. After filling them out with her ship, name, and cabin number, he slipped the strips through the handles and pressed the ends together to seal them. Giving her the claim tickets, he waited patiently while she pulled her wallet from her bag and pulled out more bills. The attendant tipped his cap as she pressed the money into his hand and turned away, headed off to the next passenger.

      Left alone, Cyn swirled in a circle, unsure which way her ship was berthed. She was lost. She’d trailed behind the porter not paying much attention to where she was going. Cyn chewed the inside of her lip. Pulling her hobo bag higher on her shoulder she started to march forward and hoped for the best.

      Do you need some help, young lady?

      An older man stepped into her path. His dark hair was heavily salted with gray. He was her height and fit, making it hard to truly guess how old he could be. His toned biceps bulged beneath the sleeves of his polo shirt, his hand wrapped around the handle of his duffle bag. Dressed in cargo shorts and sneakers, Cyn thought he might be in his early fifties. She lifted her eyes to meet his cool brown gaze. He shifted, switching his carry-on bag to his other shoulder while looking her up and down, and then his lips rose on the side to form a half smile.

      Well, hello there. He moved
