This book is for everyone who dreams of finding a soul mate, ditching a job, and sailing off into the sunset—or for those more practical types who’d rather just read about it!
A woman falls in love with a charismatic free spirit. When he invites her to realize a lifelong dream of sailing across the Pacific, she heeds the call of romance, throws caution to the wind and leaves her well-established career behind. The story of an imperfect romance on a crowded sailboat unfolds as the four-person crew sails among the beautiful, isolated islands of the South Pacific.
The Marquesas, Tuamotos, and Society Islands of French Polynesia, the Cook Islands, American Samoa, Samoa, Fiji and New Zealand are the landfalls you’ll discover along the way.
But that’s not all! The story moves to the west coast of America and Mexico as the two sailors re-adjust to life on land. Will their love affair survive? Just when it seems it might, an unexpected development throws everything into question.
Right Now Is Perfect A Romance An Adventure The Unexpected Thereafter eBook Carol Anita Ryan
This is one of the best books I've read in a long time, and not for any of the reasons cited by other reviewers. I finished it in two nights. It's a real page-turner.In my opinion the book has NOTHING to do with sailing the western Pacific. That's just a backdrop, and who wants to read a travelogue?
Instead, "Right Now is Perfect" is a painful, shredding, frustrating portrayal -- honestly and innocently told -- of an incredibly dysfunctional relationship. It details, to the level of torture, the moves Carol Ryan makes toward "Bill" and away from him. It shows her -- to the point of the reader's pain -- honestly being drawn into horrible moments, again and again and again. I was angry at her stupidity, and I cried a lot for her.
Her "lover" in this book seems to find her MS "inconvenient," but there are many other painful moments. For example, her man joins a singles softball league, for Christ's sake! And she STILL overlooks that. She helps this guy with transportation and any number of other things. And to what good end?
He ignores all her travel experiences, won't spend a dime, never calls, and is generally a total screwup. Nicely rendered! Carol Ryan couldn't have done better if this were fiction!
As I say, she is deeply in love, and is a great fool. Both at the same time. Too much for the reader to bear, and that's what makes the book good!
As a bonus, Carol Ryan happens to show "yachties" as an extreme pack of self-indulgent, self-absorbed asses. They love you when you're on a cruise, NOT when you're not. And for some reason, she keeps meeting them in the islands of the western Pacific. How insular! How provincial! How totally self-indulgent! And who could possibly envy these Lotus Eaters?
She also happens to show lousy life aboard a sailboat, and the problems of a disharmonious crew. Good!
She shows how painful and dull a long voyage is. Trust me, I'll stick to day sailing.
The key and final point--the emotional spectrum. A great book must run the reader up and down the full emotional spectrum. A book should pump every gland in a person. That's what Carol's book does for me.

Right Now Is Perfect A Romance An Adventure The Unexpected Thereafter eBook Carol Anita Ryan Reviews
I loved this book and truly felt I was along with Carol Anita Ryan the entire read. From physically experiencing life on a sailboat to the emotions surrounding her relationship to the admirable way she handles "the unexpected thereafter", I felt connected. She conveyed the picturesque world of the South Pacific so well and is gifted at succinctly expressing her emotional joys and sorrows. I couldn't stop reading this book and hope for more from this author soon.
Upon reading the last line in "Right Now Is Perfect," I wanted more;
it was too soon for the story to end. An easy read that left this reader
wanting more. Hopefully the success of "Right Now Is Perfect" will inspire
both author and publisher to ink a deal for another story that chronicles
another adventure the author has had and is willing to share with her audience.
Thanks Carol for allowing me to travel, laugh and cry with you.
I love a book that takes me somewhere, allowing me an experience that I might never have in my own life. Carol Ryan paints a vivid picture of what life is like sailing the ocean, and visiting exotic places. The sailing adventure allows the reader to experience both the highs and lows of life on a boat -at times making me wish I could experience the same magical moments, and at other times making me thankful for my warm bed and fresh running water.
Carol Ryan has provided the reader with a great sense of what it's like to spend many days on a small craft, crossing a big ocean. Some of it is extraordinary, like the bioluminescence lighting up the sea as they pass, and some is very difficult, as the people on the sailboat find their personal problems exacerbated by the small space and the abrasion of constant contact.
The whole book is an enjoyable read, but perhaps the best part is the last, where the author comes to see all of her experience through a very different lens.
There are many books out there about, and by people, with Multiple Sclerosis. This book was so refreshing in the honesty and openness with which the author shared her own experience which had not so much to do with the disease but how to take on life, and not be afraid to challenge yourself when things become available, not when all reason says you should, after your career, when you have enough money, or any of the other road blocks we put up. This is the story of a brave woman, who took chances and learned some wonderful, and sometimes sad lessons about life, love, and living. I can't wait for the next book.
I loved this book. it is about a women finding love [ though not long lasting]'and sailing the south seas. The book has pictures but I wish it had more. It is a quick enjoyable read. She gives us her experiences on the voyage. Wish I could of joined in the sailind also.
In Right Now is Perfect, author Carol Anita Ryan turns a colorful tale into a vehicle for regaining her emotional balance after a journey of many months sailing in the South Pacific. The scope of Ms. Ryan's adventure is epic The beautiful heroine sails away with her knight; they discover their strengths and weaknesses as they face challenges together along the way; and they return apparently to resume their life together at home, in California, only to confront the biggest challenges of all.
Ms. Ryan describes the joys and miseries of life at sea, the idyllic pleasures of lush south sea islands, the ups and down of life in tight quarters, and her heartrending reversal of fortune. In telling this sad and beautiful story of her voyage, Ms. Ryan bravely embraces her destiny and offers us this fruit of her labor. In telling her story, she reveals and affirms her strength, her dignity, and her triumph.
I read this inspiring story with rapt attention.
