Marco should be at university, studying biomedicine. Instead, he's been sent to live on a cruise ship in the Mediterranean with his estranged uncle, all because of a "blip" everyone else is convinced was a panic attack. (Which it most definitely was not.)
And even though Marco's trip is supposed to provide answers--about himself, about his family--all he finds on board the Ocean Melody are more and more questions. But then his best friend CeCe proposes a new plan: for someone who has always done the right thing, in every possible way, it's time for Marco to get a few things wrong. And hooking up with a hot dancer from the ship is only the beginning . . .Author Biography
