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.

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.

The book was very steamy and exciting. It offered everything a girl could want, a hot guy, paradise, and romance. I loved it. I read it in one night. It is one of the best romance novels I have read in a while. This is also my first time reading Kandy as well. I will certainly look into her other books. You can not also beat the 99 cent Kindle price. Very good book and I would highly recommend.

I really enjoyed this book. The characters are easy enough to get along with and of course the sex scenes are a bonus (damsel-in-distress + hunky male hero + deserted island = lots of sex right? The ending could have been a little less hurried, but heck, there are definitely worse buys for 99 cents

I admit, this book was outside my comfort zone. The sex scenes were quite descriptive. I wasn't expecting that. My wife enjoyed the book, and I really liked the outside the box plot, but was uncomfortable with the repetitive sex scenes, but I'm and old goat. That aside, the writer has a great descriptive style and I really liked the characters. This one is destined for a Lifetime movie of the week.

can't go wrong with this book.. felt bad for the bride at first but then was pleased when she found love from the guy that took her away from making a big mistake.

I liked this book but it was my least favorite of my purchases. I felt that it was way too far fetched and hard to buy into. But I liked the author's writing style. Just one that I couldn't really get into.

This was a "can't put down read" I just had to see how it was unfolding , it took me on that island and really was delightful, light reading...loved it

Loved! Loved! Loved this book! Couldn't put it down. The characters and the story were wonderful. This is a must read for romance fans.
