Float Plan
* A MUST-READ FOR GOOD MORNING AMERICA, OPRAHMAG.COM, BUZZFEED, POP SUGAR, AND MORE! *
Heartbroken by the loss of her fiancé, adventurous Anna finds a second chance at love with an Irish sailor in this riveting, emotional romance.
After a reminder goes off for the Caribbean sailing trip Anna was supposed to take with her fiancé, she impulsively goes to sea in the sailboat he left her, intending to complete the voyage alone.
But after a treacherous night’s sail, she realizes she can’t do it by herself and hires Keane, a professional sailor, to help. Much like Anna, Keane is struggling with a very different future than the one he had planned. As romance rises with the tide, they discover that it’s never too late to chart a new course.
In Trish Doller’s unforgettable Float Plan, starting over doesn't mean letting go of your past, it means making room for your future.
"I devoured Float Plan in a day. It’s truly a joy to get lost in such great writing—the island-hopping setting transports you from the hum-drum everyday, the dialogue is sharp and spot-on, the characters feel flawed and authentic and hopeful. It’s the kind of story that takes you away and brings you back grateful for the journey.” - Katherine Center, New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk Away and Things You Save in a Fire

Anna and Ben have planned a sailing trip to visit several islands in the Caribbean aboard his sailboat. However, Ben takes his own life leaving Anna, a novice sailor at best to complete the trip on her own if she chooses. While her family wants her to stay and movie on with her life, Anna feels like this is something she has to do. She quickly realizes that she needs assistance with the boat and sailing and hires Keane Sullivan to do just that. Anna and Keane become fast friends - going through the good, the bad and everything in between. In this story, they find themselves and each other. But when Keane is offered the opportunity of a lifetime, their lives may not end up the way they plannedâ¦
Okay, so this was a cute happy go lucky romcom which is not usually my genre of choice. It was really cute, but super predictable - I loved Keane and the banter between him and Anna. I found aspects of Anna and Keaneâs relationship happened really quickly for what sheâd been through. Not a whole lot of character development, wouldâve liked a little more background. The ending was also rather abrupt.
Overall, Iâd recommend it if you need a quick, fun vacation read!
I really enjoyed the story and reading about their adventures together, the time spent together, and how they became friends and then more. It wouldn’t feel rushed, but wasn’t too slow either. I think the pacing was just perfect. That being said, I do feel like the ending was a little anti-climactic, and I would’ve loved to have a bigger hurrah With her finishing what she set out to do.
Overall though, I really did enjoy this and I’m glad that my friend Lindsay recommended it and told me to read it ASAP
Anna is making her way through life in a fog. After finding her fiancé dead from suicide 10 months earlier she’s found herself just going through the motions. Until Thanksgiving Day comes and she decides to take that trip around the Caribbean her fiancé Ben mapped out for them. Her mother thinks she’s completely lost it now.
Not even a week into her journey she realizes that maybe she can’t sail by herself. Keane is not what she was expecting. I enjoyed the dynamic between Keane and Anna. The banter and the feeling that they just get each other is on point.
After reading Float Plan all I want to do is sail the Caribbean with a hunky guy!
