I Will Follow Him

Oceanic Dreams, Book 5

By: Holly Tierney-Bedord

Narrated by: Jeannette Smith

A bachelor party on a cruise ship. What could go wrong?

When private detective Francie is hired to spy on a groom-to-be as he and his bachelor party set sail for the Caribbean, she thinks she's landed herself a week of paid vacation. Between lounging in the sun and sipping margaritas, she just needs to - best case scenario - report back that he's on the up and up, or - the unfortunate, more likely scenario - snap a few photos of her target in compromising positions, buy a box of sympathy chocolates for her client, and then collect her pay along with a nice golden suntan.

Blame it on the island breezes or the alcohol, but within hours of setting sail, Francie's leisurely vacation gets complicated when she starts making careless mistakes. Like accidentally becoming friends with the groom and falling for his best man.

Can she get herself and her mission back on track, or has she blown her cover and possibly even her career?

This novella-length romantic comedy is book five in the Oceanic Dreams series. All titles in the series can be enjoyed in any order.

Critic reviews

"Many LOL moments. Word of caution: do not drink anything while reading this story, unless you're okay with spitting it out." (Michele Brouder, author of A Match Made in Ireland)

"Ms. Tierney-Bedord shows her wonderful imagination and way with words that makes the plot come alive in a delightful way. I Will Follow Him is as good as all her other books and novellas." (Jena Henry, author of The Golden Age of Charli series)

So much fun!

I read this entire audiobook in a day. Once I started listening, I didn’t want to remove my ear buds. The voyage on this cruise ship was boat loads of fun!

The plot was fast paced and tight knit. One of my favorite aspects about this book was that the protagonist is a woman working in a profession dominated by men. She is a PI, and no one expects her to be good at her job because she is a woman; however, she doesn’t let that stop her from taking on the case of a lifetime.

I’m surprised the author could pack so much fun and sparkle into such a brief book. If you’re looking to escape your winter blues like I was, I highly recommend setting sail on this voyage of fun.

I received a free copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

A modern love boat!

This is a first for me author and narrator. The author wrote a fun read and the narrator did a great job! This audiobook is book 5 in the Oceanic Dreams series, but each are standalones in the series. I enjoyed listening to this short romcom of this Private Investigator who's spying on a groom to be on a cruise ship. She's not only working, she's making friends and learning what she really wants with her life.

Very cute story

Very entertaining. I cruise yearly so I could totally see this happening. Well almost most of it. The narration was very good . I would listen to this entire series if I had it. Highly recommend it

Hilarious!

I really enjoyed listening to this story. My coworkers probably think I lost my mind.

No need to read the 1-4, this is great alone!

First off, this being an audiobook, I loved the performance. It came out great at 100%, no need for speed change. Jeannette Smith is a pleasure to listen to. I am going to have to listen to more of her work. The editing was superb or unneeded, I am not sure which.

As for the story, I am not big on PI, or romance, the latter of which I thought this might be, especially seeing as to the synopsis. This, on the other hand, was squeaky clean comedy, with a bit of real life plastered through the cracks. I suspect that I will give this a listen again, and recommend it to family and friends, for some time to come.

I requested a free review copy of this audiobook, with expectation of my honest review. Thank you for allowing me to listen to and review the book. It really was a pleasure!
