A lovely short story about two strangers who meet on a train under mysterious circumstances bound for the equally mysterious Joy Island. This was a beautifully written story, heartfelt, and so romantic. ( )

I really loved this unique short story about a couple who meet on a train bound for Joy Island. Why are they on the train? How did they get there? Where is Joy Island? I don’t want to give this plot away, it’s better to read the story and find things out for yourself. Another uplifting, beautiful, and romantic story by Bobby Underwood. ( )

Reading this short story is like watching Bryce Harper hit a home run, or Muhammad Ali throw a jab, or Pele perform one of his classic bicycle kicks for a goal. An all-the-way beautiful thing to behold. Joy Island, the story, is like the actual place that Bobby Underwood so lovingly and vividly creates. It’s a story of life and love that transcends our world that oftentimes throws some hard things at us that can become too tough to handle. Underwood beautifully and magically reminds us that hope and love can overcome even the worst things. ( )
