An over-40 romance with grumpy-sunshine charm, reluctant hiking boots, and the healing power of s'mores.

Dotty Jenkins, spirited veterinarian and newly minted outdoor expedition leader, is determined to make her first wildlife rescue hike in the San Bernardino Mountains a success. Armed with boundless enthusiasm, a clipboard, and a ragtag crew of parent-child duos, Dotty is ready for anything -- or so she thinks.

She didn't count on Harvey Walters.

A gruff, recently retired Marine, Harvey would rather face a grizzly than chaperone his moody teenage grandson on a five-day trek. But when his daughter insists, Harvey reluctantly signs up, expecting nothing more than bug bites and awkward silences.

What neither of them expects is the spark that forms between trail mishaps and campfire confessions. As the group navigates the wild terrain, Dotty and Harvey find themselves on a journey of their own -- one filled with healing, hope, and the kind of unexpected romance that only nature can inspire.

Perfect for readers who love heartwarming, humorous tales of second chances and love found under the stars.
