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.

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.

I've been a young retail/food srvc worker...

and I don't know that any of us sounded like these kids or could afford a resort. I am aware it's a fantasy kind of deal, but when we're told their ages, the story lost a star for me. Otherwise, I had fun audio-reading it.

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!

the cross overs!

TBOY! top score! OMG! I'm in love with the cross overs! amazing story, pretty good character development.

Amazing and relaxing

It is a very nice story very relaxing and to pass the time, I hope I get to know a lot more about the rest of the characters in the future

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!!

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.

kinda depressing until the last couple hours

it's needed, I know, but Kent is freakin depressing, and Jonah is too, to a lesser extent. also the reader, meh, not much of a fan I guess. his pronunciation made the depression seem almost ... snooty. his accent for Rico was good though. but even the youngest brother sounded depressed.

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.
