Thank you to netgalley and penguin UK books for the eARC of One Night on the Island by Josie Silver!


I was pulled in right away, and fell in love with the characters! The dialogue and teasing/flirty banter between Mack and Cleo was fantastic.

The character development was really well done, and I enjoyed seeing them grow throughout the book. There’s a little ✨spice✨ but it’s mostly fade to black after the first time together.

There is technically some infidelity in the book which I wasn’t a big fan of. The middle of the story was a bit up and down with maintaining my attention but overall it was a wonderful romance book!

I’d highly recommend especially if you enjoy:
🔥Slow burn
🛏One bed trope
👥Stuck together/forced proximity
🧳Holiday romance

Spice level: 🌶 (1/3)
