The Hike

Like the other reviewer, I read the entire thing in one setting. Really pulls you into the story.

Ash and Tuck have been friends for years. after a vacation in Tiajana they had a drunken tryst and now both men are trying to figure out how to tell the other they want to try again. Ash takes matters into his own hands planning a hiking vacation for them to spend three weeks in the wilderness on a less traveled path alone. Just the two of them and their dogs. But something is off. Animals are acting weird and they get a warning from a friendly man Melvyn to watch out that things are off.
This cover is pretty darn freaky. At first, I thought horror but I love John Inman and the blurb sounded so good I decided to give it a go. Glad I did. It wasn't horror but was a bit scary. Towards the end, A lot scary! Had me biting my nails begging and pleading for poor Ash and Tuck.
I loved both Ash and Tuck. They really complimented each other perfectly and are a match made in heaven. I loved the dogs and they play a big role as well. that always makes me love a book more as I am an animal lover. Melvyn was funny and added the needed relief for the suspense in the story and of course, there was some sweet tender man-love.
I highly recommend this if you like friends to lovers, a touch of suspense, cute animals, and some sweet and tender man-love.
