Arctic Wild by Annabeth Albert

4.0

High-powered NJ attorney Reuben is going on an Alaskan wilderness adventure with 2 of his friends to celebrate his 48th birthday. When his friends have to back out at the last second, they don’t believe he will follow through and go on his own. Determined to prove them wrong, he sets off alone for Alaska - hoping for a gruff, older, silent tour guide who will leave him alone to work each night.

What he finds waiting for him instead is Toby - a hot 30ish charming guy who loves to talk. Both feel a connection right from the start but know they won’t act on it because of the circumstances. But when things happen and they end up in a forced proximity situation...who knows what will happen?

I really enjoyed this read - the characters both had opportunities to grow and evolve through the book. It also brings the steam! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thank you very much to Netgalley and the publisher for the advance reading copy in exchange for my honest review.
