Andrew has inherited a great deal of money from his father, but it came with some unusual stipulations. The first of these is to organize a private cruise for fifty people, all over the age of fifty. While it's a challenge for Andrew-a thrifty homebody bordering on curmudgeonly-it's nothing new for his wife, Abigail-a bossy extrovert who loves to plan a party.
Andrew and Abigail choose to invite family and friends to join them as they cruise the Channel Islands off the California Coast. The cruise is full of vibrant people, including Hank, Abigail's sweet, hard-of-hearing father; three spunky women in their 90s who like to hula; and Cousin Olivia, who just may have it in for Abigail. The group comes face-to-face with the different stages of aging as they enjoy and survive adventures and misadventures on the islands while experiencing the vacation of a lifetime.
"All Aboard" invites you into the lives of each of the characters-some exploring exciting new love in marriage, others sharing enduring love that has lasted long after the wedding day, and others that are navigating the ups and downs of being single. This is a fantastic stand-alone book with an unexpected and compelling twist at the end-leaving readers excited to read more, with none of the dreaded end-of-book depression as they jump right into the next book in the series.
