This is chapter six from a girly, romantic comedy novel I am working on. Three girls go on holiday to the Dominican Republic and the story tells of their adventure there. The main character, Clara, is an independent 20 year old who is single and enjoying it, until she falls for someone on holiday. It challenges her views on love and life as she meets the man of her dreams...or so she thinks.
