The "reigning romance queens" (PopSugar) and New York Times
bestselling authors of The Soulmate Equation and The
Unhoneymooners present a charming and laugh-out-loud funny novel filled
with adventure, treasure, and, of course, love.
Growing up the daughter of notorious treasure hunter and absentee father
Duke Wilder left Lily without much patience for the profession...or much
money in the bank. But Lily is resourceful, and now uses Duke's coveted
hand-drawn maps to guide tourists on fake treasure hunts through the red
rock canyons of Utah. It pays the bills but doesn't leave enough to
fulfill her dream of buying back the beloved ranch her father sold years
ago, and definitely not enough to deal with the sight of the man she
once loved walking back into her life with a motley crew of friends
ready to hit the trails. Frankly, Lily would like to take him out into
the wilderness and leave him there.
Leo Grady knew mirages were a thing in the desert, but they'd barely
left civilization when the silhouette of his greatest regret comes into
focus in the flickering light of the campfire. Ready to leave the past
behind him, Leo wants nothing more than to reconnect with his first and
only love. Unfortunately, Lily Wilder is all business, drawing a clear
line in the sand: it's never going to happen.
But when the trip goes horribly and hilariously wrong, the group wonders
if maybe the legend of the hidden treasure wasn't a gimmick after all.
There's a chance to right the wrongs--of Duke's past and their own--but
only if Leo and Lily can confront their history and work together. Alone
under the stars in the isolated and dangerous mazes of the Canyonlands,
Leo and Lily must decide whether they'll risk their lives and hearts on
the treasure hunt of a lifetime.
This page-turning adventure full of second chances, complicated
relationships, and the breathtaking beauty of the American Southwest
will take you on one wild ride.
