Product Description

Shipwrecked and stranded with a sexy stranger, a runaway bride finally risks losing her heart.
Cristy Walters planned the perfect wedding: five-star resort, beautiful dress, millionaire husband-to-be. So how come on her wedding day she’s shipwrecked on a tropical island, her gown in tatters, and carried over the threshold of a survival hut by a hot, hunky stranger?
With no rescue in sight, Cristy is all alone with sexy Matt Slade—a man who makes her pulse race like it never did for her fiancé. She and Matt explore the island—and each other. Passion is instant, trust comes slowly—especially as Matt is not the carefree boat bum he appears to be.
Can the love they discover survive in the real world away from their castaway fantasy?

5.0 out of 5 stars An island paradise - lovin, and living for the moment, August 30, 2011
This review is from: The Castaway Bride (Kindle Edition)
Cristy planned the perfect wedding, at a fancy island resort, gorgeous white wedding gown, and a rich husband to be. She finds herself running from it all - falls into the arms of Matt Slade and asks him to take her away off the island.

A runaway bride !

Shipwrecked with Hotty, sexy Matt Slade, Cristy finds herself day dreaming - lusting for him, he makes her pulse race, her heart flutter and tingles in places like never before. An attraction she has never felt , Matt brings out a yearning in Cristy she never existed.

Matt and Cristy explore the island, and eventually give in to desires they both can't deny, passionate and sensual just living for the moment. Matt is not who is says he is and Cristi not the gold digger Matt thinks she is.

A Love affair that brings about a passion and sparks within, but can their love survive outside the Island and moments and memories they have created?

Can they learn to trust their feelings - or move on to never know if love ever knew existed!

My Thoughts!!

Oh my !!

This books reminds me of my most Favorite movie ever *Blue Lagoon *, of course it is not!! But I couldn't help but relate my thoughts to a beautiful island, waterfalls, seafood at hand, and fresh fruit and nakedness and frolicking in the water. !

Yes it has all this... oh and hot romantic interludes !!!

Kandy has created a romantic story, that's jam packed filled with passion, love, and two souls who have never found true love. A smooth flowing story, with chapters that easily flow, a great cast of characters that I am sure you will fall in love with. An dialogue thats crisp and flowing.

Cristy and Matt`s chemistry was like a bonfire and a raging inferno! Sensual, loving, passionate and hot as hell !

I could see Matt walking down the beach is big tat - bare arse and hot bod !! Kandy has no qualms in creating visions for us to ogle and drool over and even moments where I was giggling at Cristy's antics. Her beach attire - and naivety was amusing, I found myself giggling like a school girl in some parts, the dinosaur, the sharks ... Cristy was certainly a fun loving character . A well developed character trait of Cristy's that Kandy let flow through the entire read.

Matt was a jack of all trades, from smoking hot in the bedroom to as sexy in the kitchen! I love a man who is self sufficient! ** wink wink **

Sexy moments, that will make your toes curl, grin sheepishly at their banter, and funny moments that you can't help but laugh at. This read contains all the goodies for a quick uplifting romance filled with humour, romance and lots of loving !!

A hotty we drool over, a great storyline and a happily ever after we all love to see.

My first ever story I have read of Kandy's , it won't be the last, if your after a quick romance, that will not only have your heart - a - flutter, your toes curling and your pages wafting with heat then this sensual romance is for you !!

An island paradise, for two,, what more could any girl want - (( Not to be rescued that's for sure )) wink wink !!

Cristy is running away from her wedding when she runs right into Matt. He helps her escape, and then they are shipwrecked.

Sweet story, and the descriptions of the island made me want to go get stranded there immediately!

They have chemistry, but each have relationship baggage that causes them to be distrustful of the other.

A fun story with spicy scenes make this a great beach read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny and sexy, August 30, 2011
This review is from: The Castaway Bride (Kindle Edition)
I have to admit that I'm a big fan of Shepherd's work and this next book doesn't disappoint. Christy and Matt end up ship wrecked on a desert island wearing very little. Their survival bag consists of chocolate and condoms. Yes, it's sexy. Yes, it's romantic. The hero is to die for and the heroine is very well characterised. For romance fans who like their romance hot and heart felt, this is one to read.

More About the Author

Kandy Shepherd swapped a fast-paced career as a magazine editor for a life writing fun, feel-good fiction. She lives on a small farm in the Blue Mountains near Sydney, Australia with her husband, daughter, and a menagerie of animal friends that include a dog, cats, horses and two miniature bulls. Kandy believes in love-at-first-sight and real-life romance--they worked for her!

Kandy's new release, SOMETHING ABOUT JOE, is a heartwarming love story. The hero is hot, smart, great with kids, and he can cook--what's not to love about Joe Martin? But stressed-out executive and single mom, Allison Bradley, fights it all the way when she finds herself falling in love with her little boy's new nanny. Joe is one of Kandy's favorite heroes--he actually came to her in a dream!

Kandy's Amazon bestseller, THE CASTAWAY BRIDE, is an unashamedly escapist romance about a runaway bride who is shipwrecked on a tropical island with a sexy stranger--and their only emergency supplies comprise chocolates and condoms... This story is a tad steamier than Kandy's charming dog-themed stories. There is a dog, the hero's black labrador--but he gets seasick and can't be on board the hero's yacht, so he never actually appears on the pages.

LOVE IS A FOUR-LEGGED WORD, Kandy's debut novel, is a romantic comedy set in San Francisco about a little dog who inherits a big fortune and the people he brings together.

Kandy's second book for Berkley Sensation HOME IS WHERE THE BARK IS is a tale of romance, mystery and dogs. It's a follow-on book from LOVE IS A FOUR-LEGGED WORD, and tells the story of Serena, the heroine's best friend in the first book. Brutus, the millionaire mutt, and Coco his beloved poodle mate, guest star. But Mack, a big sad-eyed mutt who is abandoned at Serena's doggy daycare Paws-A-While, is the doggy hero of the story. HOME IS WHERE THE BARK IS is a stand-alone story that can be enjoyed without reading the first book.
