This was a fresh and wanderlust fulfilling summer read! I don't know about you, but I cannot currently afford to spend the summer in the beautiful small town of Galway, Ireland, but 20 something Chelsea can and did.
Chelsea recently lost her job as an event planner and hostess at a quaint bed and breakfast in the suburbs of Boston. She lived in a little apartment in the upstairs of the B & B. But when the owners tell her they plan on retiring at the beginning of the summer, Chelsea is given only a couple of weeks to decide where live will take her next. The elderly couple offers her a position with her sister's hostile in Galway Ireland for the summer while she figures out what she wants to do next.
Chelsea arrives in Galway and is immediately underwhelmed by amenities and accommodations at the Wanderer Hostile, but the cheeky bartender Collin keeps ribbing her and her lack of enthusiasm for Ireland. Collin offers to take her on day trips around all the sites in Ireland on their days off to help her get the full Ireland experience. She resists his offer and all Ireland has to offer at first, but as the summer wears on she slowly starts to realize that Ireland may have more to offer her than Boston.
This was an amazing summer read, and checked all the wanderlust boxes for me!
Themes/Tropes:
πTravel romance
πFinding oneself
πSummer read
πIreland tourist destinations
πContemporary romance
πGrumpy-sunshine
πIrish countryside
πTemple bar district

β¨Immediate need to travel to Ireland
