Reviews

[Avery Hill · Rating 3 out of 5]

Each story was so good and cute but I wished they were all their own book! Some of the stories felt a little rushed and I wanted more of the lovers’ journeys before happily ever afters.

Great stories if you looking to temporarily get away to a tropical paradise for a short time.
