Sophie Sullivan – författare

''Joyful, swoony romance full of heart and humor!'' Sarah Adams, author of The Cheat Sheet on A Guide to Being Just Friends

Sometimes the best things in life are just outside your comfort zone.

Presley Ayers is not the kind of woman you bring on a camping trip. As concierge at an exclusive hotel, her expertise lies more with recommending champagne and caviar than the best hiking boots. But when she surprises her boyfriend with a trip to a wilderness retreat and he dumps her instead, Presley decides to head solo to the Get Lost Lodge.

When Beckett Keller helps Presley off the rickety boat and onto Lodge territory, it''s clear to him she''s made a mistake. She doesn''t appear to like hiking, fishing, or nature in general, so why is she here? But with a crumbling lodge always forcing him to defer his plans, he certainly doesn''t have time for Ms Fish-Out-of-Water.

Even so, neither Beckett nor Presley can help that inexplicable draw they feel towards each other. He''s all rough stubble and plaid shirts, while she''s all high heels and designer brands. But you know what they say about opposites!

Praise for Sophie Sullivan!
