Random Acts of Fantasy: Random Series, Book 3 Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

4.4 out of 5 stars 645 ratings

You ever really think that you'll win the lottery? Meet Mr. Right? How about two Mr. Rights?

Somehow the universe is handing me everything I want (except for that lottery part...), and I don't like it. Not one little bit. Because just when you get all your dreams handed to you on a silver platter, that's when an airplane dumps its sewage on your house. Or your mama's diabetes takes a bad turn. Or your mobile phone gets stuck in your hoohaw.

(What? It happens...)

Boring old average me got everything I wanted already, moving from small-town Ohio to big-city Boston to follow my heart. So when the fancy invitation offering me a pile of money to come with the band, Random Acts of Crazy, to perform on an island resort and be their manager arrived, I thought it was a cosmic joke. Enough money to help my mama get what she needed, five days in sunny paradise, and a shot at greatness for the band? Unreal. One big shoe was waiting to drop. On my head.

Just like no one really ever finds a naked man wearing only a guitar standing by the side of the road hitchhiking and ends up falling in love with him and his friend and moving halfway across the country for true love, no one gets an invitation to come to what turns out to be a resort where people make what me and Joe and Trevor do together look like a chaste peck on the cheek. But...Well.

I guess these things do happen.

To me.

    I have waited patiently for the third book about Trevor Joe and Darla! This was a great great read! It had me laughing so hard in parts that I almost lost control. I got lost in the story about this loving three some! I had pre orderd this book as I couldn't wait to see where this three some would go. I love love love how Julia writes. She is real in her writing and how she developes her characters. There is the required dreammy steamy element also. I find it hard to wait for the next installments of her books.! Funny,dramatic and Sexy!

    This was my first book by Julia Kent but it won't be my last. I found myself giggling at some of the situations Darla found herself getting into especially when she had to get on an airplane for the first time. Been there, done that...thought not quite as badly as she did. The story was intriguing in its setting and now I have to read the other books in the series to get a better picture of Eden. I like the manner in which Ms. Kent brought about a satisfactory ending to the story of Darla and her two mates. Good story and very funny at times.

    I wasn't sure what to expect when my favorite crazy band of characters went on their adventure to Eden. I have to say that I SO missed them and I knew that anything that went down, was going to be sexy and hilarious. And it was! Even their personal descriptions of Eden and the antics taking place there, had me laughing my butt off pretty much constantly! :D It was genuinely enjoyable throughout the whole story. The plot could have just been about them enjoying the island and it still would have been an enjoyable read, but there were more important plotlines running at the core of this story that REALLY made this the 5 star novella it is. If you are reading this series, this book is NOT TO BE MISSED!
    LOVED it! Adored it! It made me Smile and Laugh and feel the Love! ;) I'll ALWAYS be a HUGE fan of these guys are their gals.

    I find it a little sad Joe had to go through all this to finally get a clue about something's, but at the same time despite the money,education etc. Darla's family ( white trashy seeming or not) was a Whole lot better and Saner than anything Joe grew up with.. Joes ex was crazy/evil but his mother doesn't sound much better... Wow.... Can't wait for all those strings to finally be cut...
    Only thing that really bugs me? I wish I were the one with to yummy sexy men I was totally in love... No offense to Darla ( I mean I don't need to be in my 20's again and they sure don't need to be up and coming rock stars ) but Damn do I wish I was living something like this instead of reading it....
    Only I'd like to be at the part where we have our act a bit more together and living together in a more permanent way ... Mentally,emotionally and definitely physically ;)
    Thanks Julia!!! Thanks for this series ;)

    Julia Kent writes another awesome chapter in the ménage life of Darla, Trevor, and Joe. Written with a lot of humor from the point of view of all 3 characters. Their unusual relationship becomes closer and the true love that Trevor and Joe have for Darla is so strong that no one can break them apart, even a psycho ex-girlfriend! I recommend this book to anyone that loves a good laugh and loves reading about true love. The best thing to do is read the previous books about these 3 characters for a better understanding of their relationship. Looking forward to the follow-up book by Julia Kent as always, her books are always funny, sexy, and completely entertaining.

    3.0 out of 5 stars etwas bizarr
    Reviewed in Germany on August 27, 2014
    Diese Geschichte von Darla, Joe und Trevor ist die erste in der "Invitation to Eden" Serie. Sie bekommen eine Einladung, um mit ihrer Gruppe "Random Acts of Fantasy" auf der Insel aufzutreten. Die drei leben in einer Beziehung, die dort auf die Probe gestellt wird.

    Der Inhalt der Geschichte ist gut und teilweise spannend. Leider konnte ich durch den sarkastisch-witzigen Schreibstil keine Verbindung zu den Charakteren aufbauen. Ich nehme ihnen ihre Gefühle einfach nicht ab. Es fiel mir zeitweise schwer, überhaupt weiterzulesen, ich habe einige Kapitel nur überflogen. Erst gegen Ende ist der Stil (für mich) lesbarer geworden. Wer nichts gegen diesen Stil hat, findet sicher Vergnügen beim Lesen. Wer (so wie ich) lieber in Gefühlen schwelgen will, sollte lieber die Finger von diesem Buch lassen.

    Trotzdem werde ich mir den nächsten Band, von einer anderen Autorin) besorgen.

    So the band gets invited to a mysteries island and when they get there it's not what they thought. Joe runs into an old flame and that causes a bit of drama but finally Joe, Trevor and Darla come together as one.

    Another great read from Julia Kent. I was laughing, then feeling apprehensive for Darla. What an incredible topsy turvy tale of emotion and love for Trevor, Joe and Darla.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Random Acts of Fantasy (Random series bk 3) by Julia Kent.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 31, 2015
    book 3 in the series of 5... Catching up with Trevor, Darla and Joe and their intense relationship(s). Well, the authors imagination certainly took full flight with this novel. It wasn't the best of this series, I feel, but that is just my opinion, but if you are well into fantasy then this is for you.... Probably, its not so much a fantasy, and there are places like this..... This will certainly fulfil a sexual fantasy..... The author must have had a whale of a time with this storyline.... Well worth a read, as it gives you a lead into how the band feel about what happens, and how they move forwards.
