Funnily enough, Daniel owns a very expensive hotel chain that has been trying to buy the island for the past two years. Not that Joshua knows that yet, and boy are sparks gonna fly when he thinks he’s been set up.

Of course, sparks of a different kind are also soon flying between them.

Then there’s Matt who just got let out of prison, Charlie who ran away from home, and Ben, a famous model until a devastating house fire destroyed his face.

Welcome to Rainbow Key – held together by love, family, and sticky tape.

Review

Reviewed by ButtonsMom2003

A wonderful start to a new series!

I read and reviewed Joshua’s Rainbow when it was first released as an ebook in February 2018 and now I’ve had the opportunity to listen to this wonderful story performed by Darcy Stark, who is a new-to-me narrator. I have to say that his voice is perfect for this book (and I hope he does the rest of the series).

The various voices he does for the wide range of characters were spot on (no I’m not British but I couldn’t think of a better term to use ?). Darcy Stark brought the story back to life for me. I’m not a re-reader of books as there are just too many great books in my TBR for me to take time to re-read something – even if I loved it. However, listening to a book I’ve already read is a different story. I’m always eager to see how the narrator interprets the different characters. I thought by listening to a book I’d already read that I would be able to listen with half and ear – and that is the case with some books, but not with this one. Darcy’s voice was so compelling I found myself just as engrossed in the story as I was when I first read it.

I highly recommend this audiobook and I will be looking at more books performed by Darcy Stark.

I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author but no review was required.

    “I hope you bottom?” Ed blinked and choked on his mouthful of rum and Coke. Alec suppressed the urge to grin, enjoying the fact that Ed had momentarily lost his cool. “I’ve been known to,” Ed replied, rallying. He licked his lips. “Good.” Alec held his gaze, noting with satisfaction that Ed’s pupils had blown wide and his lips parted as Alec looked at them.
