Making Waves / Tawna Fenske / 344 pages / R. T. Reviewer's Choice Award

Wow!  Was this ever a wild ride!  Julie is the smartest woman alive with an IQ of 186. Because she gets bored easily, she has had many jobs.  She is awkward socially and is seeing a psychiatrist to help her cope.  She has agreed to accept a voluntary layoff from her most recent position so that she can spread the cremated remains of her recently deceased uncle over the Caribbean Sea.  She encounters Alex, a recently shrifted executive of an international shipping company and becomes embroiled in his and his so-workers plot to hijack a ship full of diamonds.  Of course, romance blooms.  This is laugh out loud romp with an ex football player turned gourmet cook to enliven the plot and make the reader quite hungry.
