Paradise

by Stacy-Deanne

His dream became her nightmare

​Stacy and her boyfriend Dawson join a community of travelers on a Caribbean island to start a new life, but Stacy soon realizes their paradise isn't what it seems.

Immediately something seems off with Vea, the community's sexy leader, and Stacy begins hearing rumors about a Swiss man named Kilian who Vea's banned from the group.

Stacy shares her distrust of Vea with Dawson, but already under Vea's spell, he brushes off Stacy's concerns.

Feeling alone, Stacy befriends Kilian and they fall in love while trying to find out what Vea is hiding.

After finding out Vea's secret, Stacy vows to make Vea pay for the horrible things she's done, but Vea has plans for Stacy too and none of them involve keeping her alive.

Paradise. All I can say is Wow! That book was amazing! My heart was on edge the whole time. I almost stayed up all night reading it, but I needed my rest. This book will have you on the edge of your seat questioning what will happen next. Stacy and Dawson are a couple with a few problems to work out. Dawson decides to take Stacy to a secluded island for vacation to work things out. Upon arriving, things go differently than planned. The owner of the island, Vea, has her eyes on Dawson. Dawson falls back in his old ways of cheating on Stacy. Stacy gets upset and they do nothing but argue. Stacy notices strange things happening on this island that aren't right. She confronts Dawson but it's too late he is under Vea's, power, the seductress of the island, as well as everybody else. She discovers Kilian, an outcast from the group, hidden in the jungle. They become close and determined to hold Vea accountable for the destruction brought to the island. This book is riveting and suspenseful! A must read book! *** I voluntarily read a Review Copy of this book. All opinions stated are solely my own and no one else’s. ***

One of the Best

I was up all night reading this book. The heroine did not believe the old saying about curiosity. The storyline and plot had a few twist and turns. The Hero had a few surprises also with his connection to the villianess. I have read a lot of books this year but this one is one of my favorite ones.

🙃🙃🙃

I really don’t know how to read this book, it really seems more like a lifetime movie drama. So much happened in such a short time yet it was so predictable. This is my first read from this author, short story this may be the authors method. I might check out another of her books...

It was a little slow at first it didn't give too many details about Dawson & Stacey but as you get into it everything comes together. Vea was a piece of work, but I liked how it all came together in the end. I liked the plot

Whoa

Not going to lie I did find Stacy a bit much in the beginning but Kilian made her more tolerable and towards the end you root for her. Good read for sure .
