I woke up in a strangers bed––now I'm a prisoner in the Amazon jungle.

My captor built an invitation-only, exclusive resort that’s not the oasis it appears to be.
It’s a hideout where he plots revenge for the narcos who ruined his life.

After a tropical storm destroyed my camp, I shot a flare through the trees for help. I never expected a man like him would come to my rescue.

Except the mountain of man with rugged looks and a wild cat tattoo on his back is not my hero.
His eyes follow me everywhere, even when I think I'm alone at night––he's out there––watching me undress.

There's no way to escape the jungle on my own.
And the world thinks I’m already dead.
No one’s coming to save me.

But the more time I spend here, the harder it becomes to resist the dark desire crawling under my skin.
Giving in to a man like him could have deadly consequences...

Fans of captive, forced proximity, and enemies to lovers tropes will devour book one in the dark Jungle Oasis Trilogy by USA Today bestselling author Autumn Archer.

Wow! Excellent Dark Romance

Wow! Excellent Dark Romance
This is the first book in the Jungle Oasis series. Just as a heads up, this book ends with a big cliffhanger. So if you hate cliffhangers you may want to wait until all the books are released before starting this series. It’s a steamy dark enemies to lovers romance.Wow this book is dark and intense. I’ll be the first to admit I generally don’t like dark romances but I absolutely could not put this book down. It’s well written and the story just pulls you in. Dante holds Iris captive because he can’t let his secrets get out and Iris has seen to much. Iris hates Dante but at the same time there’s this attraction that keeps pulling them together. There is a lot of push and pull between each other. I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book.I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Amazing!!!! Wow I cant even begin to explain! The writting is absolutely beautiful and descriptive and just beautiful! The characters are so well developed. I felt every emotion. I love how there was no unecessary dragging of any particular scene. It was fast paced but also detailed enough to really feel submerged in every single scene. Did I mention the writing is freaking magnificent. This book had everything I would want in a dark romance book. The dialogue was so GOOD. I mean I could go on and on. Plot 100000/10

Iris is a 23yr old ecologist, who’s in the Amazon rain forest collecting samples. When her mentor is killed during a thunderstorm, she unknowingly stumbles onto Dante’s land. His own personal oasis. For years he’s lived in isolation, except for the few men who work for him. But when he finds Iris wondering on his land, she’s delirious and sick. He takes her back to his facility and cares for her, unfortunately for her, she’s now his prisoner. But he promises her 6 months of her trust and loyalty and he’ll free her. Though when an event happens, all his trust in her is wiped away.
This book took awhile for me to get into, I almost gave up, but I didn’t. It really got good and by the cliffhanger ending I was hooked!

Billionaire, Dante Valdez, El Fantasma, the one that criminals go to to start a new. Headquartered in his kingdom, a sanctuary, for those that need to disappear. All the whole, plotting the demise of those that wronged him.

Iris, evo-scientist, in The Amazon studying and monitoring endangered flora, feverishly stumbles unwittingly onto his property after a storm decimates her camp and mentor. Forced to surrender her existence in order to live.

Trust is everything - gained and lost.

This adjective and analogy laden read had me disliking Dante's character, but pulled into the same list driven way as Iris.

3.0 out of 5 stars The premise was good
Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2023
So I liked the premise of the plot, but the execution was poor. The writing was choppy, the scenes jumped, and there wasn’t enough details where they should have been; not to mention the FMC had no sense of self preservation.

When she first wakes up and is exploring the room, she enters the bathroom and it’s being described, but literally the next sentence she is rubbing coconut “essence” down her arms. Like huh? Where is she now? well apparently she must have gotten in the shower, but there was no mention of this act. She just kind of spawned there I guess. This happens a lot and I had to keep pausing and going back to see if my kindle was glitching and missing pages or something. Like one minute she is literally in her bed wondering if she had been violated and the VERY next sentence is sal telling her to “Eat up.” Like when did he enter the room, well come to find out they were now in the employee cabin eating breakfast. That’s how crazy the scene jumps are throughout.

I thought I would like the FMC, but she just makes dumb decisions all around. She tried to leave once and when she got turned around she literally accepted that she have to stay there, she didn’t even start off to try again. She is literally in a glass cabin surrounded by strangers (all men), but seems to have no problem showering, dressing freely, swimming naked etc. I don’t know any woman who would immediately be this comfortable after being kidnapped. She constantly smarted off to a stranger who held her life in his hands, yet she never tried to learn her surroundings to try to plan an escape, but did think about her desires about him all the time. Just dumb lol

This book was just a back and forth between the two main characters, and the FMC was so fickle it didn’t make sense. I mean why would she even have jealousy toward another woman when she has literally only known him a week or less (not sure as the author really doesn’t describe the timeline as it occurs) and he is essentially her kidnapper. I’m not sure if I’ll read the next one as I want to know more about Dante, but it was hard finishing this one with the stupidity of the FMC. I still rated it a three as I thought it was a unique storyline, it just could have been executed better and the character of the FMC could have been stronger

4.0 out of 5 stars Iris and Dante
Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2024
3.5 stars - The plot is interesting as bits of El Fantasma's history is slowly revealed. Iris is a strong character, however, her actions makes it hard for me to root for her and I want smack her at times. There are chemistry between the main characters. I am hoping her character grows on me as the series continues.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I always love reading anything autumn writes.

This is no exception. I was lucky enough to read a few chapters before it was released and I have been waiting for what feels like an eternity for the trilogy to be released omg! It’s amazing!

I love this story so far. Autumn has a way of painting such a vivid picture you can’t help but be dragged into the book and it completely consuming your mind.

Iris. She is so strong willed but she knows her best bet to surviving and getting free is to keep Dante in her side. Which isn’t easy considering he is keeping her from her life.

Dante. The ghost. He hides from the world only bringing people he can watch to his island. So when he finds iris he is convinced she has ulterior motives.

What a cliffhanger to end book one on. I’m so glad I have book tel to go straight into!

Wow! Can not wait for the second book!! Amazing story so far!!

Dante holds Iris captive in his jungle oasis. They soon learn about each other and although brutal they start to get so much closer.

So dramatic and the suspense was wild in this book. Had me on edge and reading so fast to keep up with the action.

I really adored the chemistry between Dante and Iris, their love hate, push pull, tug of war relationship that was so full of conflict that you have to wonder if they will ever get it right. I am really loving Dante now though, now that I am beginning to understand him more. And I'm enjoying how Iris is coming into her own identity, with power to stand and reason with him. So good.

This is very well written, with all the feelings there on the page and that makes this story so involving.

Highly recommend this book and if the trilogy is like this, I can't wait for more!!.
