  • 1908. On an adventure to tropical Florida, blindly confident Elsie oversteps thresholds—exposing answers to the unsolved riddles of her heart.
  • 1924. A spunky gal reporter falls for a mysterious bootlegger while chasing a story on a dangerous island.

  • 1996. Related to royalty, poet Jessica Spencer decides to break society’s rules, save the world, and find adventure on the island of Bonaire with a mystery indigenous scientist, Roman.
  • Will a modern-day cowboy’s offer to buy an Aruban girl’s tour business end with a love merger instead?
  • He goes to work on a yacht hoping to escape his failures, only to find himself living in close quarters with the love of his life, the one whose heart he foolishly broke ten years ago.
  • A woman starts a second career as a veterinarian in the Virgin Islands where a donkey helps her find herself and love.
  • An adventurous treasure hunter in Bermuda finds more than a handful of jewels.
  • In the Conch Republic, a long-lost son returns for his legacy and ends up with the gift of love.
  • A modern-day marriage of convenience on a romantic Island Kingdom leads to love.
  • With a fifty-thousand-dollar grand prize on the line, the final two contestants of a reality survival TV show must battle their hearts as well as the elements when they discover that the magic between them might be more valuable than anything money could buy.

Escape for an hour—or a day—to worlds where love, action, adventure, humor, and warmth combine in classic tales of enemies becoming lovers, marriages of convenience turning into more, and second chances proving it’s never too late for love.
