Swept Away

　　和一夜情對象被困在海上，到底是禍是福？

　　Zeke為了買下已故父親的船屋，才會在這週末來到鎮上；Lexi則是為了幫閨蜜照顧女兒，根本沒有時間跑去約會。這兩個人意外遇見彼此，都下定決心要利用眼前這個陌生人暫時擺脫生活難題。Zeke跟Lexi本來認為這就是一個開開心心的夜晚，沒有誰要為誰負責任，也不需要再見面。然而，在這一個漆黑又起濃濃大霧的夜晚，溝通不良下，竟沒有人把船屋固定在碼頭上…第二天早上醒來，兩個人赫然發現自己眼前所見，四周都是綿延數英里的水域。

　　船上只剩下零星的食物。Zeke跟Lexi不僅要找到回家的路，想辦法生存下去，此外還有另一個大挑戰：一男一女，單獨被迫待在同個空間下相處，能進一步認識彼此的時間太多了…讓人墜入愛河的時間也太多了。(文／博客來外文館)

　　"Swept Away is that rare story that feels like a brand new version of romance – with unlikely lovers in a confined space in a way you've never quite seen before. Suffice to say I drowned – happily – in this book."—Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author

　　Two strangers find themselves stranded at sea together in this epic new love story by bestselling author Beth O'Leary.

　　What if you were lost at sea...with your one-night stand?

　　Zeke and Lexi thought it would just be a night of fun. They had no intentions of seeing each other again. Zeke is only in town for the weekend to buy back his late father's houseboat. Lexi has no time for dating when she needs to help take care of her best friend's daughter.

　　Going back home with a stranger seems like a perfect escape from their problems. But a miscommunication in the dark, foggy night means no one tied the houseboat to the dock. The next morning, Zeke and Lexi realize all they can see is miles and miles of water.

　　With just a few provisions on the idle boat, Zeke and Lexi must figure out how to get back home. But aside from their survival, they're facing another challenge. Because when you're stuck together for days on end, it gives you a lot of time to get to know someone—and to fall in love with them.
