Summary
As the Australis Star cruises for 19 days from Sydney to Honolulu, the lives of five passengers are changed forever.
Genevieve hates cruises; all that lounging around quaffing cocktails and too much food. But Peter, her husband, has bought this one for her after the worst year of her life, and she couldn’t tell him she didn’t want to go. Still traumatized after a family tragedy, both of them have gone into hiding behind small talk and silence.
A cruise is the last place where Genevieve could imagine making a friend, but when she meets Thomas, a morbidly obese man inhabiting a patch of shade on the deck, she finds him easy to talk to. Thomas himself has a past—one which has poisoned the only relationship he cared about.
The two form a gentle friendship and a kind of healing takes place, until Peter drops a bombshell. By the end of the cruise, all of their lives will have changed.
Kath Engebretson's Nineteen Days is a story of unexpected friendships, facades that people wear, and what happens when they break. But above all, it is a story of how love manages to seep through the cracks and find a way.

Emotional family drama of loss and redemption
An enjoyable story of loss, redemption and second changes. After the death of her son Gwendolyn and her husband take a cruise from Australia to Hawaii. Gwendolyn hates cruises but soon meets Thomas a morbidly obese man who she immediately befriends. The nineteen days on this ship will change the lives of all of the books give main characters. Secrets are exposed, resentments are revealed and second chances are offered. I liked the characters and the story. The writing is emotional and good. I liked the final section which has a little more pace. I found Hannah Lahor's narration to be generally good , an Australian narrator which the book needed, but she does pause at unexpected places, overall not a book I would have normally read but I am glad I did. I received a complimentary copy of the Audio book and am leaving a honest voluntary review
