Resumen del Editor

It's the number one rule in this beach town: don't fall for a tourist.

But Jonah Lachlan isn't like any tourist I've ever met.

He's not here for a good time, that much is obvious. In fact, the brooding, boy-next-door cutie is clearly hell-bent on being miserable. Though he's here with his best friend, he doesn't seem interested in hook-ups. Or fun. The guy brought a book to this beach full of gorgeous single gay men, for crying out loud. Who does that??

And as if he couldn't be any more confusing, he seems superhumanly immune to anyone who flirts with him. Myself included.

Just one brief encounter with him on the boardwalk was all it took. Now I can't stop thinking about him. I'm sweating in places I didn't know I was capable. I'm at a complete loss to explain my feelings. I can't let this short weekend slip by and let a guy like that go. I don't care if he's a tourist. I don't care about our cardinal rule.

I'm going to break all the rules and dive in deep with this one.

Contains mature themes.

Insufferable main character

I love this authors work, but oh boy was this a slog. Jonah is annoying. He’s a dumpster fire of insecurities and angst and negative sexual associations.
**Oh no! He’s not conventionally hot!**
He complains about it the whole book and still makes a connection with the conventionally hot guy.
He’s meant to be relatable, but it’s just work to listen to him complain.
Which is a shame as this is the start to a whole new setting for the author.

I’m not going to stop reading this author, I (usually) really enjoy his inversions of MM romance tropes, but this was just a bad book.

I like many parts of this but

I liked many parts of this but the storyline was not altogether there. I love Daryl Banner’s other works and this might be an anomaly. One of the narrators had an oddly affected mannerism that also threw me off the story. Hoping the next in the series is more tightly constructed.

Another wonderful trip to Texas

In Too Deep is the beginning of another wonderful series from the amazing Daryl Banner. We get to visit the town that Toby and Vann from the Spruce Texas Series moved to. And get to meet a couple of guys there for the weekend and some of the locals. I don't want to give too much away. So I will just say if you loved the Spruce Texas Series then this comes highly recommended. Daryl Banner is by far my absolute favorite author and can't wait for the next book in the series.

Great Start!

I always get excited for another Daryl Banner series set in Texas. This one is set in a resort town on the Gulf of Mexico. Jonah and his friend Rico head to a resort a long weekend of sand, sun, and hot guys. Kent is a local who has a rule to stay away from tourists. They’ll love you and leave and who needs that? But, rules are made to be broken.
I love the dynamic between these two guys and how they navigate the intense feelings they have in a short period of time. The town itself is a major character in the story.
I’m looking forward to more from this seaside locale and the men who inhabit it.

Daryl Banner does it again!

Wow, just wow! Great story line and character development! Look forward to the next installment!

Love Dreamwood !!

Smart and witty storytelling from Daryl Banner! Jonah and Kent are heartfelt, sexy and fun! Dreamwood Isle is another fantastic world in Texas created by Mr. Banner ! The talent of Chris Chambers is joined by Kai Rubio narrating this beach Town romance!!

Story was good

Honestly, I liked the story but one of the narrators let me down. It was like watching a good movie, the story is good the one lead actor is good, but the other lead actor is a “B” or “C” list actor. Chris Chambers did a great job, as usual, however, Kai Rubio just lost me with his interpretation. His reading was just flat, and kind of boring. My mind kept drifting when he was narrating.
I would love for another narrator to redo his part, and then re-release this audible.
