Book Review of :  One Way Ticket



one-way-ticket.jpg

NY Times and USA Today best-selling author, Tricia O’Malley’s latest romance is a funny and heart-pounding story where booking a one-way ticket to paradise means starting over, letting go, and taking a chance on love…one more time.

When Paige Lowry discovers her boyfriend and boss, owner of Yoga Soulone studio, has decided her chakras need realignment in the form of inviting several bendy yoga instructors into their bed - she realizes it’s time to smack him with her yoga mat and namaste away. When she calls to cancel the studio’s upcoming Caribbean retreat, the last thing Paige expects is to be offered a job. What better way to give the middle finger to her old life than to hightail it to a tropical island to work at a fancy resort?

But all signs point to an impulsive mistake when she arrives at the dusty airport on Poco Poco Island and nobody is there to pick her up. The alcoholic owners don’t remember hiring her, the skeleton staff barely holds the hotel together, and the moody yet gorgeous manager, Jack Byron, seems irritated with her very existence. Things go from bad to worse when Paige learns that her ex and his flexible mistresses are arriving in three days for the retreat she thought she had canceled.

Caught in the eye of the storm and her growing attraction to her new boss (been there, done that, didn’t turn out well), Paige must scramble to prove she can run this upcoming retreat with no disasters. But even she can’t be blamed for the hurricane that swerves left and suddenly has the tiny island in its sights. As tensions explode at Tranquila Inn, Paige learns that taking it poco poco might be the only way she’ll survive.

Sometimes the universe doesn’t send you a sign  it just drops you on a dusty island with no ride and a hurricane brewing
That line could literally describe Paige’s life  or the current state of Amazon book reviews 😅

Tricia, your book had me laughing, cringing, and questioning my next yoga class, but the real crime here? A story this good still floating in the Amazon desert like a lost flip-flop after a Caribbean storm.

Now before you roll your eyes thinking this is another “buy my promo package” carnival barker moment  breathe (preferably not into a paper bag). I’m not a promoter. Not selling ads. Not even offering to “get you 10K views overnight” (because who are those 10K ghosts, anyway?).

What I do have is a small cult  sorry, community  of brutally honest, opinionated readers who read for fun (yes, we still exist). We love books that make us laugh, sigh, and occasionally throw our Kindle across the room. And when we love a book, we actually leave thoughtful reviews that help it get seen.

Crazy, right? Reviews instead of robots.

If you’re cool with authentic readers who:
📚 Read because they’re addicted to good stories.
💬 Leave real, human feedback (the kind that helps with Amazon’s sneaky little algorithm).
🎙️ Occasionally debate if your mermaids are based on true stories…

Then we’re speaking the same language.

And if you don’t mind, we’ve also got a Discord server where authors hang out with their top fans — like a virtual Tranquila Inn, minus the hurricane and yoga drama. You can pop in, ask readers what they thought, or just eavesdrop while they fight over which character they love more.

So, should I go ahead and send you the invite link to meet some real humans who actually read what they review? Or should I just namaste away quietly before Briggs and Blue chase me off your beach? 🐾😏
