Katherine Center does it again by writing a fantastic novel that's heartfelt, emotional, yet full of healing and romance.
This novel follows Helen a year after her divorce from her alcoholic husband. She's decided she's going to do this hiking course to emotionally unburden herself and become a new person and identify with nature. However there's just one small problem. Her younger brother's friend, Jake, is coming too. And he wants to car pool with her. This was her chance to be alone and find herself and now she has to deal with him. However, when things go sour on their way to the hiking course things change, and Helen demands that they act like strangers the whole trip, all while trying to hide the feelings she has developed for him.
If you are a fan of hiking and nature, you are going to love this book. It might not be super descriptive of the nature but I thought it did show realistically how difficult it can be on the trails.
If you are a fan of enemies to lovers/friends to lovers romance tropes then this book is also for you. I'm honestly not sure which trope this falls into but I loved it regardless.
If you have read anything by Katherine Center, then this book is for you.
