Catalina and Dave Robinson are newlyweds; they have been married only a matter of hours.  Dave’s best friend and the best man in the wedding, Andreas Bailey is flying them in his plane to their honeymoon destination in Barbados.  Flying over the ocean, something happens to the plane and the unthinkable happens and they have to make an emergency landing on an uninhabited island. 

While this is not the honeymoon Cat and Dave envisioned, they are happy and thankful that they and Andreas are alive.  The trio does their best to keep their hopes up that they will be rescued.  At the urging of Andreas, Dave and Cat celebrate their wedding night alone but while together they both notice something very arousing -- Andreas is watching them make love.  The next morning Dave and Cat discuss Andreas and his part in their lives. 

Talk about Caribbean heat! Dawn Halliday is now solely responsible for my air conditioning bill!  Looking on her website, it appears that Honeymoon Castaways is her first release.  If that is the case, then I can’t wait to see future novels.  The characters flowed well together, the sex was steamy, and the emotional ties between the characters were apparent between the trio.  Dave and Cat’s love for each other was strong, passionate, and it was obvious they were loyal to each other.  When Andreas was added into the equation that was Dave and Cat, the heat rose at least 20 degrees. 

Honeymoon Castaways was my idea of a perfect ménage.  There was nothing about this novel that I didn’t like.  Well, other than the fact that it made me sweat.  Ms. Halliday gets two thumbs up Honeymoon Castaways and I have to Joyfully Recommend it as well.  It was just that impressively awesome.
