This is exactly what I found this to be. I saw a review from my friend Kat and knew a fun read would lighten the load when I sometimes tend toward serious non fiction titles. Hoopla delivered via my public library, and I found this straight away.

Yucky characters such as an awful fiance to be, proposing on the Appalachian Trail while 'pretending' to be hiking - think food flown in and sleeping at hotels along the way. Poor old Olive, she's had 6 failed engagements, she also happens to be the grand daughter of an ex President of The United States.

Our cute protagonist Olive soon discovers a life that is worth more than this; and after experiencing unforgivable behaviour from this supposed fiancé while hiking the trail, she keeps on keeping on and teaches herself how to hike properly. Well, as much as she can without the correct gear.

Olive comes across a gorgeous ranger Jay, while a storm is brewing, and this sets off a beautiful and gentle story of two unlikely souls learning about each other, and the environment they are in. The side characters were great, and the descriptions of the trail, the way of life while hiking were believable and interesting.

I loved this romance story, it was funny and sweet and sizzly and easy to read which is one thing I love with my reading. Nothing to not love here.
