Lauren’s sequel to
Unhoneymooners, an audio original production narrated by Jessica Marie Garcia, Harry Shum Jr., and a full cast, returns listeners to Hawai‘i. Four years after her disastrous wedding and very short marriage, Ami is determined to disprove the Torres family wedding curse by surprising Olive and Ethan on their island elopement. She arranges for family to join the couple’s getaway and—over a handful of days—to make her sister’s dream wedding a reality. Ami is displeased with the couple’s insistence that she plan the event with the best man’s assistance. Residing on the island, easy-going and fun-loving Brody seems to know everyone—at least well enough to get discounts and favors from various vendors. When their attraction becomes undeniable, Ami realizes that she might find love in paradise too. Ambient sounds, including island music, distant crashing waves, and chattering people, immerse listeners in the lively scenes. This atmospheric soundscape combines with the narrators’ delightful performances, creating an enchanting radio-play vibe.
VERDICT A thoroughly entertaining listen. Those who enjoyed Olive and Ethan’s love story in the previous novel will fall in love with Ami and Brody’s too.
