I’ve spent my life doing two things: exploring these mountains and running the business that supports my big family. But now everything’s changed, and if I want to save our livelihood, I have to man up. Even if it means taking advice from a city-girl consultant who thinks hiking gear means flats instead of heels—and who wants to turn Wilder Adventures into Wilder Romantic Adventures. It’s my job to introduce Lucy to our hunting, fishing, camping, and rafting trips. At first she’s a total fish out of water, but before too long, we’re laughing with instead of at each other. And while Lucy may not appreciate the finer points of building a shelter from scratch or starting a fire with sticks, it turns out she knows a whole lot about getting dirty. She’s also smart, capable, and unbelievably beautiful. But Lucy’s time in Rush Creek is running out, and my past has taught me that you can’t take the city out of the girl or the girl out of the city. So why am I still trying to make her fall in love with small town life—and me?

Review: I read this book for free via Apple Books and I actually enjoyed it a lot. Maybe it deserved a bit more of character development - 3 weeks seems a very short period of time for all that happens between Lucy, Gabe and the rest of their families. And Lucy's characters isn't all that consistent - coming from someone that is shy and sometimes socially awkward, I can guarantee that Lucy isn't either of those things, that everything in the way she behaves contradicts whatever the author is trying to tell us about her.
In any case, it's a fun book and now I'm definitely curious about the other books in the Wilder Adventures Series.
