What a concept, what a novel! I absolutely raced through this bold and beautiful story. I laughed, I cried, and did a fair amount of holding my breath, rooting all the while for our lovable Lexi and Zeke. I loved it. Beth O'Leary never fails to deliver a fresh, modern romcom
I was of course swept away myself ... my book of the year, my book of the decade. The best romcom I have ever read
This love story will capture you hook, line and sinker. The brilliantly original premise is executed with Beth O'Leary's assured, fresh writing, and her talent for really making us feel
Swept Away is that rare story that feels like a brand new version of romance - with unlikely lovers in a confined space in a way you've never quite seen before. Suffice it to say I drowned happily in this book
I loved Swept Away! I think it might be my new favourite Beth O'Leary! This story completely captivated me and I adored Lexi and Zeke
Swept Away is a one-of-a-kind story and an absolute treat. Completely original, so romantic, funny, fresh and deeply heartfelt, this is Beth O'Leary at her very best. Zeke and Lexi are compelling, complex characters you can't help but root for, with a love story that had me hooked from page one. Swept Away has my whole heart
Swept Away is playful and heartfelt - warm, escapist and unhesitatingly romantic. Beth O'Leary's books are a perfect balm in these times of uncertainty
I adored it, it was so romantic
An epic romance expertly woven into an adventure thriller, Swept Away had me swooning and gasping at the turn of every page. Truly, no one writes falling in love like Beth O'Leary, and this one completely stole my heart
No words. I'm speechless. Beth O'Leary is the GOAT! I promise you, just read Swept Away. Read it

Fresh and original, this brilliant, heartfelt love story is perfect for fans of Emily Henry
Swept Away is an epic love story, one that is both romantic and action packed. Original, sweet, and charming
A masterclass in tension and character, I adored every single page of Swept Away and have thought about it many times since finishing. Beth O'Leary is a genius
Contemporary romance fans will be delighted
Taking the romcom where others fear to tread, Beth O'Leary has absolutely knocked it out of the park with this one. With characters you'll immediately fall in love with and an at sea set-up that will have you intrigued from the start, Swept Away manages to be laugh out loud funny, utterly romantic and edge of your seat thrilling all at once. An absolute winner!
Gorgeous characters and brilliantly original. You will lose yourself in the reluctant sailors' story
Another fabulous will-they-won't-they from this brilliant romance writer
One final twist adds another emotional layer to this lovely, life affirming story about finding your authentic connection
Written with the kind of grounded authenticity at which O'Leary excels, but also full of the beguiling romance and magical moments that cannot but help seduce readers, Swept Away is guaranteed to sail away with your captured heart!
Beth O'Leary, author of The Flatshare, goes full tilt at her "locked-room romance" premise, upping the ante as their boat-prison develops more leaks and the days start racking up . . . O'Leary saves an unexpected twist for the climax to keep you guessing whether this love in adversity adventure will have a happy ending
A peppy, romantic read.
I was transfixed by the tale of two strangers trapped in a very small space while facing certain danger and praying for help to rescue them, all the while learning about themselves and each other. A great romance for holiday reading, as long as you're not on a boat...
I raced through the audiobook version
Swept Away pushes the boundaries of the romance genre. It feels inherently different and fresh, like a new version of romance: an adventure that makes your heart race like a thriller, but with a love story perfectly woven throughout. It is unlike any other romance book I've read before
A heart felt must-read to add to your list this summer
