Wild at Heart
Book Feature - Wild at Heart by Stacy Gold
HBL Note: It will probably come as no surprise to anyone who’s ever met me, I’m not much of a backpacker. I LOVE to hike, I have (mostly) fond memories of camping as a kid (more so in cabins than tents), but spending days on end without a shower, running water, and a sturdy mattress? Not really my thing. However, I LOVED reading Wild by Cheryl Strayed, which first introduced me to the Pacific Coast Trail, and I am all for reading about more adventures on the PCT through Wild at Heart by Stacy Gold. That’s what reading is really all about, right? Experiencing lives you won’t lead yourself? And I can guarantee I will not be backpacking the PCT in this lifetime, so I’m eager to read all about Jules and Evan’s experience. Scroll down to read more.

From the publisher:
Overworked entrepreneur Jules Martinez is sick and tired of men leaving her for their exes. Determined to wipe the giant, scarlet R for rebound off her forehead, she kicks off a yearlong vow of celibacy with five, blissful weeks backpacking her favorite trails through Washington State. Solo.
Out-of-work financial analyst Evan Davenport hasn’t been happy since camping in Scouts as a kid—before his wealthy parents and now ex-fiancé made all his major life decisions. Hoping to find joy and purpose, he buys all the latest ultralight backpacking gear, flies to Washington, and sets off alone on a weeklong speed hike through the wilderness.
Mother Nature has other plans, though, and keeps shoving Evan and Jules in each other’s paths. Usually naked. When sparks fly, can they find what they’re looking for in life together instead of apart?
