DESERT ISLAND CASTAWAYS: Casey Cox

Our favorite MM authors a.k.a. castaways are asked, what books, songs and luxury item would they take to a desert island?

This is a monthly series inspired by LezReviewBooks.com’s ‘Desert Island Books’, which in turn is based on BBC’s ‘Desert Island Discs’.

Let’s welcome our July castaway, Casey Cox

DESERT ISLAND BOOKS

Okay, so not to get too technical here, but I’m going to go ahead and name a few series (and count them as ‘one’). Hey, there’s never any timeframe for getting rescued off a deserted island, I gotta have reading options, haha… I’ll also name a few standalone books as well, too!

Here are some of my favorite go to reads I would love to lose myself in for a few hours, with the sand between my toes, while enjoying a cocktail (or three). (Yes, in my mind, this is a luxury deserted island.)

Mia Monroe – Tattoos and Temptation series
These books are such a great read. Set in Miami, it follows a group of tattoo artists and bakers as they set about finding their happily ever afters. Low angst, steamy, and just such so damn enjoyable.

KM Neuhold – Heathens Ink
This is the series where I discovered (and fell in love with) KM Nuehold. And wow, mind blown. A well-written series that truly immerses you. A great read, and always a sure fire reread as well!

Briar Prescott – Better With You
This series needs to come with a warning – do not consume drinks while reading. Seriously, Briar’s writing is laugh out loud snort-worthy funny. This is a charming and delightful series.

Nora Phoenix – Perfect Hands
This is Daddy/boy MM romance done right. Nora has such a descriptive flair to her writing, you feel like you’re right there with the characters. So good!

NR Walker – Finders Keepers
There is so much to love about this sweet story about two guys who connect over a missing dog. It’s a charming story, so well written, and it’s set in my home state of Queensland, Australia – so yay for that!

Lily Morton – Merry Measure
I don’t normally like Christmasy books, but in this one, Lily creates a beautiful romance (set in Amsterdam), and it’s such a great, charming story that it’ll get even the grumpiest of grumps into the Christmas spirit!

Robbie Couch – The Sky Blues
A YA book that took me back to my high school years and reimagined them in a whole new way. Plus, who doesn’t love a gay promposal?

DESERT ISLAND PLAYLIST:

This is criminally hard, but, since Aaliyah’s music has FINALLY been released on Spotify, I could listen to her self-titled album on repeat. It’s a great mix of r’n’b and soul with that unmistakable Timbaland sound. Even now, twenty years after its release, it sounds so fresh. She was taken way too soon, but her legacy lives on with this brilliant album.

LUXURY ITEM

Aloe vera. I live in Australia, and I’ve been scorched by the sun more times than I care to remember. The feeling of aloe vera lotion (straight outta the fridge) on sunburnt skin is the best, most luxurious feeling in the world! Trust and believe.
