Island Flame

By: Karen Robards

Narrated by: Justine Eyre

Dear Listener,

It is difficult for an author to choose a favorite from among her own books, especially when she has been lucky enough - as I have - to make a career out of doing what she loves. But some stories are memorable because they mark an important milestone in an author’s life, and for me, perhaps none is more special than Island Flame - my very first book. I was thrilled when it was published, and now, more than thirty years later, I am just as excited to share it again with you.

Island Flame is a classic tale of romance on the high seas, featuring two extraordinary characters: the headstrong Lady Catherine Aldley and the legendary pirate Jonathan Hale. I don’t have to tell you that their tumultuous escapade sizzles with passion (lots of passion!), but what I hope you will take away most from Cathy and Jonathan is that dreams do come true - in love and in life. Mine did, and I hope yours will too.

I look forward to sharing many more adventures together in the future.

Enjoy!

This would be a good mini series

***Spolier Alert...This book is layered with so much complexity in this compact package. I think the psychology of it could be broken down into a good mini series. The female character is a unreliable narrator so its hard to properly gauge the aggressive sex scenes because we only get them from her POV and she eventually admits her willingness after she has accused him if rape.He is a person with a broken past so he is quick to always think the worst of her and resorts to treating her horrible to ease his own hurt feelings. Sad to say it was a excellent example of how disfunctional relationships can be. Beside the delay in them getting to the truth...I enjoyed it

Wowwwwwwwwww

This book was one of the best (top 10 books) I have every listened to on audible. Loved both characters, Cathy and John; however, cruel in the beginning John became the lovable adoring hero in the end; Cathy was determined, dedicated yet naïve at times......... but their love endured. I cannot understand where the Island flame title came from; they were only on the island for 1-2 chapter s. What is going on with the book’s cover page, Cathy is blonde not a red head.

Enjoyed.

I enjoyed this book I think it was kind of rough and some things done by the hero were bad but over all it was a good listen. Love the narrator
