A WHOLE NEW WORLD AWAITS...BUT IS SHE READY TO DIVE IN?

When Amber Pepper's boyfriend Hugh asks her to join him on a business trip to the paradise islands of Tahiti she's not keen - she's more of a woolly jumper and rain girl. However, the prospect of sipping Mai Tais on the beach with her long-lost childhood friend Felicity, also bound for Tahiti, is incentive enough to coax her on the twenty-hour flight.

Within hours of touching down on coral sands, the girls venture into a seductive new world of mesmerising music and exotic, sexy strangers. And for the first time Amber falls head over flip-flops in lust, only to receive an unexpected marriage proposal.

Will she opt for a barefoot beach wedding or cast caution - and her coconut bra - to the wind?

No easy decision for a drizzle-loving gal when it's ninety degrees in the shade...
