Jessica (Brook's youngest sister) puts Brook for a week sail as a bid for a charity event. She has her good intentions in mind, Brook have been like a parent to her after their father died when she was just a child and so she wishes him all the best including finally finding his true love (at 35..). While she has her good intentions Brooks doesn't intend to sail with ANYONE really, but since he has no other choice but to accept this foolishness he asks Skye, his mechanic friend who works at the marina he uses for his boats to bid on him as much as it takes (he puts a ridiculous amount of money on her credit card for it). Yet there are a few problems..
Brooks Winslow never saw Skye as a "girl", wearing her overalls with oil on her hands she doesn't strike him as more than friend material and as it is, he doesn't date anyone. In his mind, the illness which caused his father's death at the age of 40 will soon take him as well, so why make a young widower like his father left his mother? Once he saw her as a woman, on the charity event though, he realizes Skye is BEAUTIFUL (and really his type..) but though Skye is more than interested in Brooks (she had a minor crush on his for years..) she is also not available.. her boyfriend might be across the sea (on a journey with his catamaran), but they are still committed to one another..
Skye Sorenson has her own sad past, her mother abandoned her and her father when she was a child, and Skye WON'T be her mother, she won't make those horrible choices so though she and Pat aren't as close as she wants them to be, she won't cheat on him and so staying at sea for a week with someone she is VERY attracted to is more complicated than she feels she can handle. But with every word, and every experience she and Brooks go through she realizes that Pat was never who she wanted, and Brooks is anything and everything she wants in her man. Thing is, though she wants him to be - Brooks isn't perfect..
Enjoyed reading this one, it's quite simple and maybe that's the fun of it.
From the little glimpses we got from the other 3 brothers I'm really interested to get their HEA as well.

ABOUT THIS SERIES
"The Winslow Brothers" is Contemporary Romance series by Katy Regnery.
It's a part of the "Blueberry Lane" universe where 4 VERY rich houses
are located. Each "sub-series" centers around one family - (1) English - (2)
Winslow - (3) Rousseaus - (4) Story.
Generally
speaking each book can be read as a standalone but I think that though
it doesn't matter with each "sub-series" you start it makes sense that
whichever you chose you start with the first book in that particular
"sub-series".
While most books are quite short and not complicated they are easy and fun reads. I really enjoyed them.
