Esther needs our book help! Oh how I love the “stranded with a stranger in a cabin trope” 😉 Though I do not recognize this one in particular.

There’s tons of detail (including pretty much, how it ends, so I spoiler-alerted for you in case you realize you haven’t read this one either. 😀

She asks:

Lee needs our book help! AND I LOVE THIS TROPE!! Two strangers stranded together and  having to survive. And better yet, these two sound like total opposites! I’m dying to know!! 😀

She asks:

…I read it about 15-20 years ago and can’t remember what it was called,

the h was on a plane with a rich hot guy who was pretty dismissive of her and a bit of a jerk, she was overweight and had an awful mother, when it crashed only the two of them survived…..

If anyone recognizes it I’d be really grateful, I would like to read it again. read more

This author came to my attention when her book “Wreckage” kept popping up as a suggestion for “stranded/castaway” favorite list (and I LOVE that trope).

While each book in this “series” can be read as a standalone, they all appear to be emotional-dramas and I LOVE those too!

JulieO: Just saw WRECKAGE and remembered how good it was. Think a re-read is in order.

About book #1:

Ellie Brown thought she’d finally escaped her stifling hometown of Broadlands, Illinois; med school was supposed to be her ticket out. But when her father has a stroke, she must return home to share his care with her older sister, Amelia, who’s busy with her own family. Working as a paramedic, Ellie’s days are monotonous, driving an ambulance through streets she’d hoped never to see again. read more

Vicki has a reader question for us, and I was SO sure I had read it and guessed it (these are one of my favorite tropes). But I was wrong. So… YAY!!! That means we get to make a list of guesses!! Er… unless someone comes up with it right off the bat. 😉

She asks:

Vicki: I have a reader’s question for you. A story of two couples who are friends. They have kids etc. They go on a plane trip and the man of one couple and the woman of the other couple are swept out of a plane. They land on an island together… read more
