I liked this book a LOT more than I thought I would. Age gap where the woman is older isn't my jam (I'm glad if that's a trope you really like, but I don't usually enjoy it personally), but it really worked well for me here. There are a…

I often say that if I am stranded on a deserted island, I want my husband to be there with me. He is a former Marine, former police sergeant, and his survival instincts are top notch. When you read about Anna and T.J. you realize how…

A light read!

I throughly enjoyed this book. I thought the storyline totally plausible and not in any way offensive or explotive. Why should there be a double standard for having a relationship where the man is older than the female, but the…

Good story even though a bit inappropriate. I think it was more about survival.

Fairly outlandish and unbelievable, two people survive on a deserted island over several years. It was fine ... it's a cute, short read for a lazy day.

When I was about 1/3 of the way through this book, I wondered if watching paint dry would be more interesting. The characters were very flat. The storyline was fairly predictable and their May/December relationship inappropriate. Also,…

Beautiful love story, well written. I read the book it 2 days. I would recommend! I was very hesitant because of the subject matter however I am glad I looked beyond that.

Interesting events occurred in this novel to say the least. If you're into 'The Blue Lagoon' then you'll love this. The plot sometimes jumped way ahead into the future, which was a tad annoying and some evens were slightly unrealistic but…

I started this book at night and finished it the same day at 4am. Interesting, fun and easy to get into. Also, pretty satisfied with the ending :)

No this book probably isn't going to win any awards for originality or for plot, but I loved it! It kept me interested the whole way through, I read it in one sitting. I fell in love with the characters and I was really invested in what…

I really enjoyed this, please people this is a story, it is made up, so who cares if it is kind of far-fetched! It made a great story and what happened between the two main people was very believable, in fact I don't get how she held out…

This book does not rate more than 1 star. I give that for the cover. The story is too much like, The Blue Lagoon in so many ways. I recently watched the 1980 re make of that movie, starring Brooke Shield. I will not other reading, Covet!

Powerfully endearing and engrossing story of survival against harrowing circumstances and from there, a story of true love between two unlikely individuals. I couldn't put it down. I loved it. I am looking forward to a sequel to this book…

So ridiculous this book borders on the comical, which is the reason I read it all the way to the end. A farce, but a fun farce to read.

A little bit Castaway, a little bit Blue Lagoon, but not enough believability to get my buy-in. I felt the author was just skimming the surface, never giving me enough description to allow me to sink into the story. But my opinion seems…

enjoyed this one. Easy read..2 nights and done! I like the fact that the author was so convinced that she wanted this book published, she did it herself. She has a sequel comng out in July for this one..those that have read it will…

A fun quick read that will keep you reading until you finish! "Castaway" but with an unlikely couple who end up spending five years on a deserted island. While much of the story is implausible it is engaging as they work together to…

This is "Blue Lagoon" meets "Cougar Town" with a sprinkle of "Gilligan's Island." (but only if Mary-Ann and the Professor had actually gotten naughty) It is chock full of improbabilities but, I have to admit, that I did enjoy reading it. …

My gosh where do I begin....perhaps with smelling underwear(what?!), invincible tampons that can be submerged in the ocean for 23 days and still be usable (I'll have to give that one a try), shampoo and detergent bottles that last for 2-3…

A good read. A thirty year old woman and a sixteen year old cancer survivor end up on a deserted island following a plane crash in the south Pacific. In the years that follow, their relationship changes as he becomes a man, they rely on…
