I have loved the writing duo Christina Lauren's previous books and so jumped at the opportunity to read this their latest. I was intrigued by the premise, two exes reunited on an adventure holiday who joined together on a treasure hunt
I really enjoyed this book, and the combination of romance and adventure is not something I have read before, and so was a welcome change. I did not guess all the twists in the plot, and enjoyed that I was always left guessing. My only criticism is that I felt Lily and Leo's romance was not given as much time as I would have liked, with the treasure hunt taking up the majority of the plot. I would have liked to read more about their relationship.
On the whole, another excellent read from Christina Lauren, and one I would not hesitate to recommend.
Thank you to the publisher, author and NetGalley for sending me this arc.
