Heaven on Hell Island (Heaven on Hell Island Universe Book 1)

She turned his Hell into a glorious Heaven
This is an absolutely delightful book. Bleu and Chris throughout the book were truly remarkable people who the author never made out to be excessively dramatic. I was rooting for Chris and Bleu's happily ever after from the very beginning. Bleu kindheartedness captured me from the beginning, especially when her survival skills set in after the plane's crash and she knew she had to save a man that held racial sentiments.Chris had suffered bad experiences in the past, he didn’t exactly take duchess (Bleu) interference well, but after he recognized that he needed her, he got over himself and did a fabulous job of protecting her after he realized the error of his ways.They spend quite a few months on the island and we learn quite a few about Chris point of view, although at times it was kind of confusing because it made me think about the topic of the book that at times got lost. And I had some queries about other characters in the book that wasn't addressed. But, overall, I enjoyed it. It was a different tale about stranded people lost on an island having to learn basic survival skills. I enjoyed it thoroughly.The book had so many nifty things to love and kept you on the edge with the island's mystical twist and then the scaring denunciation from the white supremacists once Chris declared he's leaving their group. Likewise, there's some spicy scenes between Mr Stokes and Ms Blue that were absolutely hot and fiery.I enjoyed every element of this book and I loved how Chris "monster" furs were shed bit by piece. I felt that the storyline was original, unique and interesting.The conclusion of this book was nicely wrapped up- it left the possibility of a part two pretty open, and let you choose your own interpretation. The author Shea Swain did a terrific job of maneuvering this difficult tactic as oftentimes it can be done badly.The ending left me wanting for more, even though it was not flesh out clearly, but-I'll overlook it.I definitely recommend reading this book.

Chris and Bleu..Finding Love
I was pleasantly surprised with this storyline. I was ambivalent about reading this book. But, glad I did. This story made its point with writing that flowed. Clear and concise dialogue, without having to work hard to get to the heart of the story. The h/h and the other characters has vast differences, but were very likable. I like how the backstory of Chris allowed you to understand his beliefs, even though you didn't share them. This is a diverse story. The series events of the book were well developed. Conflict, a good theme, other worldly elements surrounded an enjoyable love story. This is a book you want to add to your library.

Amazing Story
Heaven on Hell Island: An Enemies to Lovers Romance by Shea Swain. Chris and Bleu are from two different backgrounds. He has been taught to hate people that are different from him, and Bleu is a sweetheart who cares about everyone. Their chance encounter at an airport leads to them being stranded on an island together with another couple.The way the author set up this story was amazingly awesome. The drama, the suspense, and the subsequent fallout from the plane crash was beautifully executed. I was hooked on this story.The plot was amazing. I have never read a book like this, and I loved it. The timeline was easy to follow and did not cause any confusion. The dialogue was on point. The character growth was exceptional. I loved many of the secondary characters. They added to the story and did not detract away from Chris and Bleu’s story.I will recommend this story to others. I cannot wait for the next installment. I give it 5/5 Platypires.

What a ride! 🌡Wow! 🏝
This book had everything I love! Adventure, suspense, romance, and sci-fi. There was a surprise at every one of my assumptions. The story kept me immersed in the world.created by this author. Along with each character's points of view and emotions. The romance was slow to grow and in great depth. Wow! 🐚I didn't expect the end. It threw me back into thinking about the entry logs. Even more, the School that took in Colin... that was a shock! This book was..? Perfect! Wish to learn more about the other characters. Not just Colin; but, Ben and Kaitlin. Even Brielle and Justin. Huh! I remembered the names! Yeah, I went through the day with text to speech and long breaks to read. 🌴After this, I'm checking out other works by this author. The writing was impeccable. At least to me. It's what kept me on the edge of my seat and barely going through the day shores. I don't know if this was read through KU or not. I only paused once to check if other books as part of a series. 💎⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐✨

Not what I expected...This book was unexpectedly good
The story of the four people being stranded on an island was a bit cliche for me so I avoided this book for a long time. I should have known better, I really like this authors writing style and was taken after the first chapter.Blue and Chris build their relationship from the beginning and build on that from the moment the plane crashes on the mysterious island. The story grabs you and has you mesmerized throughout, the island is mysterious and scary at times, feeding into your imagination, love the fact that Blue and Chris stay together after they get back home, the only thing I didn't like was the explore how they got off the island but say I g that I'm glad they did.I'm intrigued to find out more about Colin, scary that he had something to do with Stokes demise.Need more detailed description of Justin but I will wait for that story and hopefully hear more about Blue, Chris and Jackson.Fantastic story well worth reading!!

The story was there but the execution was messy
The premise for this story was really good. Watching Chris' transformation was phenomenal to read and well done however the story became choppy right around the rescue.There were too many questions left open like who is Colin training with? What happened to Kait and Ben upon their return? Not to mention there are entire passages completely out of place when Chris first seems to arrive in NYC and when Bleu is out shopping for Colin.That being said, the Sci-fi aspect of the island was freaky but worked and the way Chris and Bleu come together and eventually fall in love rings plausible since we know from the get-go he was questioning and seeking and once we meet Grands then it's totally believable.If you're willing to rework stuff in the second half to the correct order in your head then give this novel a go. Especially when the twist at the end leaves you questioning yourself.

Heavenly read!!
Chris and Bleu's story was a pleasant surprise. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it sure wasn't this. I do have to say however that for me, the best part of the story was on the island. When the guys made it back to safety, the story kind of took a dip and didn't hold as much of my attention. Maybe that's why I found it a little confusing from that point on. Not a conventional love story but still enjoyable.

Wow!
Shea Swain is a new author i have just stumbled across and I'm glad I did 😁😁😁😁. Of course this book has some serious issues like white supremacy and racism. But this book truly shows that true love sees no colour and what you feel on the inside and that attraction for a person. It can't be fought over by some stupid ideals that have been drilled into another person's head...it just cant. And that is what makes this relationship more pure and interesting to read and explore!These two couples attraction towards one another are hot! Hot! Hot! The book has a sort of LOST the tv show feels where the island is not all what it seems. And has action , love , surprises and more that you will enjoy! truly keeps you on your feet. All characters stood out for me. Never a dull moment and I am deffo gonna read more of this authors work!
