Publisher's summary

Dr. Lily Davenport is the poster child for burnout—physically and emotionally. All she wants is a few months of nondemanding work at a summer camp, of all places, so she can figure out what to do with the rest of her life. The last thing she expects is to run into a woman who awakens a passion she hadn’t even realized had died along with all those she’d failed to save.

Forest ranger Chase Fielder is not in the market for a relationship. Counting on people never leaving is for fools. A fling with Lily promises to be exactly what Chase is looking for—short-term, hot as a forest fire, and one Chase can extinguish whenever she wants. Now all she has to do is convince Lily they’re a perfect match.

After all, it’s only one summer.

Burn Out

Dr Lily Davenport is a total burn out due to years of fighting the pandemic in New York City. She agreed to be the camp doctor for the summer at a friend’s forest camp for teens. Forest Ranger Chase Fielder is not looking for a relationship but a summer relationship wold be great. A book on the pain of the pandemic and recovery from pain and burnout. Great characters and stories. Marvelous narration.

Mostly enjoyable

I will start by saying I own every Radclyffe book, she is one of my favorite authors. I liked this book for the most part. Most will disagree with me on this. I had trouble following along with the Marty character. Referring to someone as a them is kinda confusing especially when it is a narration and I’m not actually reading a physical copy. I doubt I would listen to this one again

Loved this book

In fact I don’t think I listened to a Radclyffe book I didn’t like :) I want to read the sequel, I hope she is preparing one.
I loved the MC and the two young ones and their story as well.

Lovely story and great narration.

Radclyffe never disappoints. I enjoyed this story very much and I like that she addressed the difficulties the pandemic brought.
I like the narrator too. This is the first time I’ve listen to her performing and I’m looking forward to discover more of her work.

I loved this book!

I've been reading through all of Radclyffe's books and this one was particularly enjoyable. I loved both of the main characters, the tension and the forest setting. I always want everything narrated by Abbey Craden but I thought this narrator was great too and will see what else they have done. *Edited to add: I just finished this book and decided to relisten to it right away.

Great story - wrong narrator

This is definitely not the narrator for a Radclyffe book. Great story, but hard to listen to.

Compelling storytelling

As usual Radclyffe’s storytelling draws the listener in and keeps you wanting more. Her character’s are relatable and intriguing. You immediately feel as if you know the characters and you want to see them overcome their challenges and celebrate their victories.
