Book excerpt: "A unique, inventive exploration of love, loss, and survival." —Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Nightingale "A moving, harrowing, and downright literary novel." —Michelle Gable, New York Times bestselling author of A Paris Apartment "Brilliant, clever, riveting—pick your adjective, they all apply." —Thomas Christopher Greene, bestselling author of The Headmaster's Wife Two very different people, one very small island. For Sophie Ducel, her honeymoon in French Polynesia was intended as a celebration of life. The proud owner of a thriving Parisian architecture firm, co-founded with her brilliant new husband, Sophie had much to look forward to—including a visit to the island home of her favorite singer, Jacques Brel. For Barry Bleecker, the same trip was meant to mark a new beginning. Turning away from his dreary existence in Manhattan finance, Barry had set his sights on fine art, seeking creative inspiration on the other side of the world—just like his idol, Paul Gauguin. But when their small plane is downed in the middle of the South Pacific, the sole survivors of the wreck are left with one common goal: to survive. Stranded hundreds of miles from civilization, on an island the size of a large city block, the two castaways must reconcile their differences and learn to draw on one another's strengths if they are to have any hope of making it home. Told in mesmerizing prose, with charm and rhythm entirely its own, Dane Huckelbridge's Castle of Water is more than just a reimagining of the classic castaway story. It is a stirring reflection on love’s restorative potential, as well as a poignant reminder that home—be it a flat in Paris, a New York apartment, or a desolate atoll a world away—is where the heart is.

Download or read book The Castaway Billionaire written by Serenity Woods and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only I could get marooned on a desert island with my gorgeous ex... I've never forgotten Theo Prince. He was the first man I ever loved, and, if I'm honest, the last. But he broke my heart, and although I've thought about him often, I've done my best to avoid him. I didn't expect our first meeting in seven years to be on a plane flying back to New Zealand from Fiji. I didn't anticipate it getting struck by lightning and plunging into the ocean. And I certainly didn't think we'd get marooned on a desert island together. Being stranded is terribly dangerous-there are no doctors, little food, baking hot sun, and spiders the size of my hand. And I don't want to be alone with Theo, because he wants to talk about what happened seven years ago, and raking over the ashes of our past always makes me cry. But then the tropical storm hits us, and we're stuck together in a cave for the longest night of my life. It's hot. The man is wearing next to nothing. And even with an unkempt beard, he's the sexiest man I've ever met. As the attraction that once burned between us flares again, I do my best to fight it. But then he admits something that turns my whole world upside down...
