Erotic indeed!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Favorite character was the teller of the story, the author, the protagonist.

Which scene was your favorite?

The protagonist's spying the honeymooning couple masturbating each other.

Any additional comments?

At first, I felt the narrator spoke too quickly, but as I got into the story, I became accustomed to the accent and tempo, and the story developed. It was indeed erotic, and I responded emotionally to the characters. I did not like her friend, Dana, as told in the story. Overall, a great listen, very entertaining, and the narrator pulled off a few accents very well indeed.

Good palate cleanser book!

Good palate cleanser book!

It's short, but doesn't hold back on the steamy. It's got love, sex, mystery, and a happy ending.

Despite saying everyone else's name as well as giving some people nicknames, you never find out what the heroine's name is. It doesn't seem to dampen the story, because I wasn't even aware of this until I went to write this review! I search through the whole e-book and not one time is her actual name used. I don't think I have ever had that happen in a book before. So for the sake of this review, I am going to name her Vacation Girl.

So, Vacation Girl is on an island get away trip trying to forget her ex who cheated on her. She see one of the locals on her first day, whom she names Coconut Man because he travels around selling, you guessed it, coconuts as well as other fresh fruits and juices. She has lusted over him despite having various wealthy men thrust at her by her best friend Dana, who is sounds like she is looking for her own man more than one for Vacation Girl.

This island seems to have 2 kinds of guests, families and horny people. Soon our Vacation Girl gets her wish, or one could say fantasies, of alone time with her Coconut Man. As to what that entails and how it all ends, you will have to read that for yourself, but I will say, you won't be left unsatisfied.

This audiobook is narrated by Xanthia Bloom. She does an excellent job as always. There are not that many talking characters in this story, as most of the interactions are in Vacation Girl's head.

Overall I give this 5 of 5 stars, and would recommend this to anyone that wants a steamy short listen with a happy ending. It's a good book for in-between some of your more serious stories.

So... all of Roxy's stories are great, but this one took it to another level, I just loved the ending, OMG, talk about fab!

It was hot, sexy, and oh so sweet with a wonderful helping of romance.

Xanthia did a great job with the narration, good character voices and a great flow.
