Paradise Hotel is anything but paradise. Lisa Walker comes to that conclusion the moment she arrives at the all-inclusive resort in Benidorm, Spain. Recovering from a painful break-up as well as the impact of the pandemic—including the loss of her job and her flat—she was hoping the low-budget escape might do her good, yet she couldn't have been more wrong.
Stella Castillo, poolside manager at Paradise Hotel, is delighted to be back at work after a long lockdown. The guests are equally excited, celebrating life going back to normal. Apart from one woman, who her colleagues refer to as "Miss Grumpy".
When Stella's colleague makes a faux pas and insults Lisa, Stella steps in to try and smooth over the situation. What starts out as a tentative friendship soon leads to more and as Stella begins to understand why Lisa is so unhappy, she unexpectedly finds herself falling head over heels with the beautiful Brit.

Set in Spain, this is more than a destination romance. Lisa Walker has lost her London flat, her job and her girlfriend and books a long-term stay at an inexpensive all-inclusive resort in Benidorm so she can give herself an affordable cushion of time to find a new job and get her life back on track. She's feeling near the end of her rope and just wants to be left alone. Poolside Manager Stella Castillo and her staff are grateful to be back to full time work after the pandemic shutdown. She can't help but notice the beautiful Londoner, but she's not allowed to fraternize with guests. But after one of Stella's employees is overheard insulting Lisa after work hours, Stella tries to smooth things over and the two develop a friendship.
As the story continues, we learn who Lisa really is and how she not only discovers more about herself, but how much more there is to the area around her than what she initially realized.
I was relieved and happy that narrator Jessica Jeffries was excellent at Spanish accents and pronunciation in general. This would have really fallen flat for me otherwise. In fact, her Spanish characters were the most satisfying of all the ones she performed.
There were times I wondered what it would be like to read the physical book instead of audio and the great news is that the follow-up After Sunset was just released on ebook and paperback. I'll have to do that to compare the two experiences.
Gold throws out the standard romance formula and just allows the story to play out. There's relatively little drama or angst. It's a feel-good, very sexy, uplifting story and I really enjoyed it. And if that didn't sell you, there are puppies!
Destination, Spain!
