She isn’t too happy when she realizes Leo is in this newest party, but she’ll do her job nonetheless. She and her assistant take on vacationing groups looking for a little adventure, with the hopes that they can make enough money to buy back Lily’s ranch. This Lily is a hardened outdoorswoman who takes no shit from anyone. All is good until Leo realizes that the person leading them into the unknown is none other than his once forever love, Lily Wilder. Along for the ride is an acquaintance who frankly, made my skin crawl from the moment he stepped on the page.
Hiking, camping, decoding a treasure map and hopefully finding the gold left by Billy the Kid. But their forever promises didn’t last, and that’s when Lily’s life really goes to shit.įast forward to the present day when Leo is ready to take the annual boys’ trip with his two besties and finds out they are going on an adventure vacation. Readers also meet Leo, who showed up at the ranch Lily’s family owns to work and ended up falling in love.
Duke apparently did a whole lot of adventuring and not enough raising his daughter. Lily has spent her entire childhood decoding puzzles and hearing about the mysteries of long ago bank robberies and hidden gold. Something Wilder begins by introducing Lily Wilder, daughter of treasure hunter and adventurer Duke Wilder. Labeled as an “adventure romance”, Something Wilder is big on the drama and mystery, but some of the character’s behavior and responses left me shaking my head in exasperation. On the other hand, it is quite a bit darker than this writing duo’s other novels. On the one hand, it starts out with the classic Christina Lauren charm with interesting characters, strong friendships, and lively banter.
I’m still not absolutely sure how I feel about this book.
