Can Siggy convince Will to give her a chance?


I Saw Him Standing There by Holly Kerr is a fabulous story of romance on a cruise ship. This book is a marvelous start to the Oceanic Dreams series.

Seraphina “Siggy” Park-Smith a.k.a. Petra Van Brereton


Siggy, wow! Siggy has got a lot going on. Let’s say that she has multiple names and what seems like personalities to go with them. Siggy changes so much throughout the story. It’s like being on the cruise not only helped her find love but also herself. Siggy still needs to let go of her guilt, but I feel like she is on her way to being the best Seraphina Park-Smith yet. She has a new job, a new man and her family back.

Will McKay


Will is an officer on the Oceanic Aphrodite cruise ship and as it turns out the first guy that Siggy meets and he believes that she is Petra. He is a nice guy and he is the goody-goody type. However, he isn’t a photographer. We learn a bit about Will, but the story is from Siggy’s point of view, so we don’t get into his head. Will does have some cool hangouts on the island stops.

5 Stars for I Saw Him Standing There by Holly Kerr


My rating for I Saw Him Standing There by Holly Kerr is five stars. I completely loved the story. Siggy is great. The romance between her and Will is sweet. The setting itself is spectacular, and I felt like I was on this beautiful cruise myself. Oh, and sign me up for one of the martinis.

If you are looking for a quick summer read, I recommend I Saw Him Standing There by Holly Kerr. Now, I am on to Time of My Life by Laura Heffernan.




About the Series


Legend says a person with an open heart will meet their true love within a day of boarding the Oceanic Aphrodite. Siggy’s on the run, Liv’s taking her first vacation in ages, and Holly just wants to get to one million subscribers. But each of them finds a bit more than she bargained for. Will these 8 Sassy Singles sail off into the sunset with their matches or abandon ship?

The Oceanic Dreams series is a set of eight romantic comedy novellas, all set on the same Caribbean cruise.
