This is the second
book I have read by Kiru Taye and the second one I have enjoyed tremendously.Island Bound is a romance novel set in Nigeria. A lack of communication and
insecurities are the cause of the breakdown of Christy and Joshua’s marriage.
Although their attraction is still strong, it is not enough to keep the
relationship glued together, at least that’s how the Christy sees it.
Joshua’s
only aim is to save their marriage so he invites (blackmails) Christy into
going for a vacation with him on Brass Island. Christy agrees to go only to
obtain something she desperately wants from Joshua.
Kiru
Taye has a way with description that keeps everything in the mind’s eye without
dragging out the story. I felt as if I was
on the lush island with the characters enjoying the beautiful scenery. Kiru is
an exceptional writer who has written a great romance.
I would give Island Bound four out
of five chocolate bars.
I'm sure I would love to read this, Nana.It would be lovely to find out what happens in the Island. I wonder why Nigerian books are had to come by in Ghana. Well, with the exception o the African Writers Series.
