Publisher's summary

It's supposed to be a fun, twisty survival game for action movie star Gina Bliss, a chance to showcase her talents on a reality show. She wants to prove she can do her own stunts, stand side by side with the guys, and hang tough. And then she meets Derek Marks, not an actor and nothing like the men she's used to working with. He's strong and sexy and arousing her fantasies in ways she's never experienced. She could be down for a different kind of action with him...

...until real hell breaks loose.

Derek Marks has no use for a reality show and actors who can't do the hard work, but working on this survival type reality show is a paycheck, even if it's all fake. The only thing that isn't phony is Gina Bliss, who turns out to be a lot more than Derek ever imagined. She runs on adrenaline, is more than willing to take on any task, no matter how hard. She's beautiful, sassy, and smart, and more than a match for him in this dangerous jungle, where sometimes what you see right in front of you isn't real.

...and then the fake monsters turn out to be real.

Survival just took on a whole new meaning in this reality.

Contains mature themes.

99% romance, 1% monster

This really need a bare chested man on the cover because with a title like Demon Island, it being October, and a summary promising dropping bodies, I was expecting something along the lines of Predator, or maybe Aliens where Ripley gets a romance with Hicks. Instead, this was just your standard paranormal romance with instant attraction, fated mates, and danger tropes divided by lots of detailed sex scenes.

The demon thing was poorly cobbled together, just enough to implausibly support the romance plot. The actress/reality TV thing barely signified. The frequent sex mentioned her fluids “trickling” far too much (frankly, even once was too much- eew).

But, the biggest downer for me was boredom. If only the monsters were the stars. The dialogue was flat. The bad guy connection to the MCs was obvious and unoriginal. The chemistry was nonexistent. Although, perhaps that’s just because I was so turned off by the trickle. I finished this only because I was trapped on a plane and foolishly failed to download other books.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
