Everything I want in a Robin Alexander book. I laughed out loud too many times to count. The only lesfic author who makes me laugh as much is Colette Moody and I adore her work. Hmm... Think it might be time for a reread of one of Moody's books now... But everyone who likes Alexander's work should immediately read this one. Now.

Trigger warnings: violence, mentions of cheating
Well this was delightful. The two protagonists meet on a queer cruise to Honduras and then get stranded on shore due to a storm. The secondary characters were truly hilarious and I loved the relative slow burn as they progressed from disliking each other to realising they were perfect together. And I liked that it showed their lives in New Orleans as much as it did their time in Honduras - all too often with holiday romances, things end with an HEA just as they're about to go back to their normal lives and, like, that's not at all how that works.

5 - As with all Robin Alexander books, this is fast and sweet and funny. Something I appreciate very much about her books are the talking characters. They don't assume too much, they don't brood too much and they mostly don't hold back. Thoughts and feelings are out in the open and it's always balm for the soul how mature they can be handled.
I love the best & quirky friends, I very much enjoyed the special side characters and how the story played out.

Falon and Hayley meet under the strangest of circumstances, stranded in the island of Roatán (Honduras) after their cruise ship leaves without them. They eventually go past their original antagonism and decide to make the most of their time together. Falon wants to recover her freedom and Hayley wants to learn how to be fearless. Once they are back home to New Orleans will their time together unite or separate them?
Robin Alexander is one of my favourite lesfic authors (for a complete list see https://lezreviewbooks.wordpress.com/my-top-tens/). She's got a quirky sense of humour that is unique. 'Fearless' is no exception: it's a funny, witty and romantic story. My only criticism is that the plot seems to be cut in half, one in Honduras and the other back in New Orleans. The fast pace is lost and some of the secondary characters are more annoying than funny. However, it still makes for a very entertaining and enjoyable read. 4 stars.

Robin Alexander is on the top of my most read authors list. This was book number 22 and it will come to no surprise that Fearless earned a 5 star rating with ease. I would say this is probably going to be in the top 3 most favorite Robin Alexander books i've read to date.
As always her characters get into the most hilarious situations and the cast of friends, family and people they meet along the way is just fantastic. I adored crazy Falon and uptight Haley. Their banter was hilarious and heartwarming. Haley's overprotecting germophobic dad was a hoot! Falon's employee Del with her vajayjay problems, the toot toot song, grumpy 'dad' Marcus and Sean will always stay with me.
I love how this author always creates funny, wonderful feel good romances that make me come back for more. Never stop writing Robin, I will always be enjoying your books!
