Beschreibung des Verlags
This could be their greatest adventure yet…
A stressed-out translator on the brink of a meltdown and a thrill seeker with a serious case of wanderlust find love outside their comfort zones.
Up until a few months ago, Rheo Whitlock had it all. Stability, self-confidence and a safe job as an interpreter for the United Nations… It was the predictable sort of existence she, as a dedicated homebody, had always dreamed of—the security she’d needed thanks to her nomadic #vanlife upbringing. But ever since an unfortunate “hot mic” moment threw her career into a tailspin, she’s been struggling—really struggling—with fear, anxiety and uncertainty. A calculated escape is in order, and Rheo knows just the place: her grandmother’s secluded hideaway in the breathtaking town of Gilmartin.
Except she won’t be alone, thanks to a random twist of fate…
Fletcher Wright lives for adrenaline, always chasing the next high. So when he learns he’ll have to share his rental accommodations with Rheo—a stranger, basically—he simply chalks it up to another challenge. It doesn’t hurt that there’s an immediate attraction between them, which neither can explain. Before long, they’re not just sharing a house and new experiences—they’re sharing a bed. But when it’s time for Fletcher to move on to the next adventure, he and Rheo will both have to decide—are they ready to take the biggest risk of all?
Love in Translation is a spicy, fast-paced romance you can read in one sitting.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
An unexpected living situation leads to love in the charming latest from Wood (The Tycoon's Diamond Demand). United Nations translator Rheo Whitlock was put on medical leave after she was caught complaining about climate change on a hot mic and, subsequently, dumped by her boyfriend. In the four months since, she's been squatting in her grandmother Paddy's vacation home in Gilmartin, Wash., while trying to regain her confidence. Paddy, who doesn't know Rheo's there, rents out the property to wilderness lover Fletch Wright, and Rheo gains a surprise roommate when he shows up at her door. Fletch will be staying for two weeks before embarking on a kayaking trip with Rheo's cousin, Carrie, a travel influencer whose fearlessness and adventurous spirit make homebody Rheo insecure. Fletch, too, is a thrill-seeker. After a serious illness confined him to bed as a teenager, he's spent his adulthood summiting Mount Everest and hacking through the Amazon. Despite their differences, Rheo and Fletch have white-hot chemistry—and then give into it. But what will happen when Fletch's two weeks are up and Carrie arrives for the kayaking trip? Woods makes the opposites-attract trope sing with believable leads who must come to realistic compromises and rethink their assumptions about each other. The result is sure to tug on readers' heartstrings.
