Book Overview

by Kayla Olson (Author)

From USA TODAY bestseller Kayla Olson, a new rom-com about a high-maintenance woman who embarks on a wilderness trek to prove to her ex how low-maintenance she can be--only to find herself with no makeup and an extremely attractive trek leader.

Those who say "be prepared" never met Sadie Whitlock.

Sadie has always been praised for being the most prepared person in the room, the one who's thought of everything--and every backup plan--for any given situation. She knows exactly what she wants, exactly what she loves, and goes to great lengths to make sure her life runs perfectly as planned.

So, when her laidback boyfriend breaks up with her for being "too high-maintenance," Sadie is eager to prove him wrong, and signs herself up for a weeks-long guided wilderness adventure in the High Sierras of California: camping, hiking, rappelling, and kayaking. It's the most miserable, uncomfortable situation she can think of.

Sadie's a five-star resort girl at heart, but she has a compelling--and suspiciously attractive--tour guide: August Thorn. Thorn lives for adventure and always keeps a professional distance from the trekkers under his care...but there's just something about Sadie, and for the first time, he finds himself wanting to get closer. As they explore the wilderness together, Sadie realizes the great outdoors might truly be great with the right person.
