Island Charm

by Audrey Wick

Island Charm is "A sweet romance to savor!" says bestselling author Beth Wiseman. An imposter in paradise. When Anna Worthington's twin sister gets jilted by her fiancÉ, Anna steps in with a plan for a girls’ Key West getaway instead of a honeymoon trip. Yet when her twin has her own crisis of commitment and doesn’t board the plane, Anna finds herself on a romantic getaway that she’s forced to navigate alone. A vacation romance with an expiration date. Gunnar Lockhart, whose specialty is island tourism, is the perfect match for helping Anna complete her vacation bucket list, but time together forges a connection more personal than either anticipate. As they make island memories, Anna has to untangle her mixed emotions. Are her feelings toward Gunnar real? Or like her sister’s wedding day, has this connection been doomed from the start?

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy from the Author. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Island Charm by Audrey Wick is an island whirl romance for these two unsuspecting people.

Will Anna be able to complete her twin sister's Key West bucket list? How about not falling for Gunnar?


Anna Worthington


Anna Worthington is our female lead. She is only on the island because her twin sister didn't think Key West was in her best interests. Anna isn't happy about this arrangement but tries her best to have a relaxing vacation time. Once she finds her sister's bucket list, Anna's whole plan for this impromptu vacation takes place for her. Anna decided to do everything on the list and show her sister when she got back. The one thing Anna didn't expect was Gunnar. Anna did get some things accomplished. Especially considering that Anna needed a reboot on her life, and this was the perfect opportunity for her to do that. I do like Anna, though, and I understood everything she went through. I haven't experienced it myself, but I understood it through the author's writing.

Gunnar Lockhart


Gunnar Lockhart is our male lead. He lives on the island, and his job is to help the tourists navigate the island to get to the places they need to go. Gunnar is a laidback kind of guy that has a great head on his shoulders. This is why many people think he's a great person to manage the tourism booth. He also has a best friend named Jack, an old guy who needs Gunnar's help a lot. Gunnar tries his hardest to keep Jack and Anna in his life while Anna is on the island. I like Gunnar, especially since he seems like he knows what he wants but gets thrown many hoops.
