Troy Story Troy Story

Publisher Description

After years of burying their feelings, can two best friends uncover love among the ruins?

Ever since Stuart Carlson met Dusty Danforth on a dig in Egypt, she's been his closest friend. Together, they've weathered heartaches, triumphs, and countless archaeological expeditions. So when he gets hired to help run the American excavations at Troy, he asks her to join him as the site illustrator.

For Dusty, the Troy project isn't just another adventure. It's the chance to tell Stuart how she really feels. Instead of pining for him in secret, she's ready to admit she wants more than friendship.

But soon after they arrive at the site in Turkey, they're caught up in a feud with a group of German archaeologists. While both teams are eager to make a major find, Stuart's boss is so determined to beat his rivals that he's willing to break a few rules. Or laws.

As Stuart and Dusty work together to keep the dig on track, they give in to the passion that's been simmering under the surface. But will their romance survive when their boss's scheme puts the entire project in jeopardy?

Troy Story is a friends-to-lovers romance featuring a cinnamon roll hero, a free-spirited heroine, heaps of mutual pining, and a touch of intrigue. It can be read as a standalone.

Troy Story - LOVE!

Dusty has to be one of my favourite characters in romance books this year. I just felt for her on so many levels thanks to Carla Luna's evocative writing style. Everything came alive for me in this story - Stuart and his Hugh Grant-style goofiness, the first time they're together and the reveal just prior...I mean this little section just made my heart implode:
“But that’s not the hardest part. It’s what you said to me.”
He was almost afraid to ask. “What did I say?”
“You said, ‘It’s you, Dusty. It’s always been you.’ I’d waited so long to hear those words, only to have you forget you’d ever said them.”
Slay!
Sooo good.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
