Fathers and daughters, adventure, choosing your own happiness, second-chance romance. I started this book last night and finished it this morning, July 4th, which is appropriate since this is full of Americana mythos and Western adventures and creating your own destiny. It started out as City Slickers meets The Hangover and then sharply veered into I Know What You Did Last Summer (I really didn’t see it going that direction). There are some surprises and some predictability, but overall this book is pure fun and happiness—a total escape read and true to all the things we love about a Christina Lauren story. ( ) Lily Wilder's dream has always been to run a dude ranch. But in the wake of her father's death, she's instead left running treasure hunting tours through the Utah wilderness that draw on her father's fame as a Butch Cassidy treasure hunter. The last thing Lily expects is for her latest tour group to include her long-lost love, Leo Grady. When things go wrong on the tour, Lily and Leo will end up tracking down clues left by Lily's father to try and track down Butch Cassidy's loot. But as they travel through the canyons of Utah, there may be more for them to discover than just treasure. I'm very fond of Christina Lauren's romances as they're always a good time. This one is particularly fun as there's a heavy dose of adventure mixed in with the romance. There's an obvious debt owed to stories like Romancing the Stone (which they acknowledge in their acknowledgements) and the book holds up in comparison. Lily and Leo's romance is a slow simmer through most of the book, with the treasure hunt taking the front seat, but there's plenty to please those who are in it for the kissing (and other things). Recommended for contemporary romance fans who want to mix it up a bit. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML:The "reigning romance queens" (PopSugar) and New York Times bestselling authors of The Soulmate Equation and The Unhoneymooners present a charming and laugh-out-loud funny novel filled with adventure, treasure, and, of course, love. Growing up the daughter of notorious treasure hunter and absentee father Duke Wilder left Lily without much patience for the profession...or much money in the bank. But Lily is nothing if not resourceful, and now uses Duke's coveted hand-drawn maps to guide tourists on fake treasure hunts through the red rock canyons of Utah. It pays the bills but doesn't leave enough to fulfill her dream of buying back the beloved ranch her father sold years ago, and definitely not enough to deal with the sight of the man she once loved walking back into her life with a motley crew of friends ready to hit the trails. Frankly, Lily would like to take him out into the wildernessâ??and leave him there. Leo Grady knew mirages were a thing in the desert, but they'd barely left civilization when the silhouette of his greatest regret comes into focus in the flickering light of the campfire. Ready to leave the past behind him, Leo wants nothing more than to reconnect with his first and only love. Unfortunately, Lily Wilder is all business, drawing a clear line in the sand: it's never going to happen. But when the trip goes horribly and hilariously wrong, the group wonders if maybe the legend of the hidden treasure wasn't a gimmick after all. There's a chance to right the wrongsâ??of Duke's past and their ownâ??but only if Leo and Lily can confront their history and work together. Alone under the stars in the isolated and dangerous mazes of the Canyonlands, Leo and Lily must decide whether they'll risk their lives and hearts on the adventure of a lifetime. From the author of the "heartfelt and funny" (Publishers Weekly) sensation The Unhoneymooners, this page-turning adventure full of second chances, complicated relationships, and the breathtaking beauty of the American Southwest will take fans on one w Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
