Review: Happy Trail - Daisy Prescott

Review: Happy Trail - Book #1 Park Ranger Series - Daisy Prescott - October 2019

This book starts with us meeting Olive Perry who is in love with the idea of love, but when it gets to say I do, she gets cold feet as she realizes she isn't actually in love with them. Her current boyfriend Tye decides it will be fun to hike the Appalachian Trail but glamping style of course. So the pair start hiking the trail, though neither are hiking people. During their hike, Tyler thinks it will be cool to propose to Olive but everything backfires when she realizes that he isn't her 'forever guy" and she is now left on the trail alone as he has gone back to his "real life". Determined to follow through, Olive continues to hike the trail and earns the nickname Snowbird. During her hike, there is a call for a storm and snow. Enter in Ranger Jay Daniels who lives for the forest and birds, this is his happy place. He has been given the task to make sure all the current hikers are safe during the storm and along the way, as night nears - he realizes he still hasn't found Snowbird. Eventually, he does and they spend the night in an old abandoned cabin in the woods - cue horror music. As the pair start spending time together, they both find themselves opening up and Olive starts to wonder if Jay Daniels is her "forever guy". Just as things start to look up though, Olive gets a phone call that requires her to immediately head back home. The pair go their separate ways and then the book jumps to about six months later when we learn that Olive has finished the trail, but is her Park Ranger Jay Daniels still around for her to confess her love or has he moved on to other things? As this is a Green Valley story, we catch glimpses and tales of Winston's from Jethro, Cletus, Drew ( Ashley's husband) and a free Little Library dedicated to Bethany Winston - which made me smile.
