The real stories behind the scenery of America’s national parks. For 12 years, Andrea Lankford lived in the biggest, most impressive national parks in the world, working a job she loved. She chaperoned baby sea turtles on their journey to sea. She pursued bad guys on her galloping patrol horse. She jumped into rescue helicopters bound for the heart of the Grand Canyon. She won arguments with bears. She slept with a few too many rattlesnakes. Hell yeah, it was the best job in the world! Fortunately, Andrea survived it.

Eden is off-limits in every possible way—fifteen years too young, ambitious, and fiery as a dragon’s breath. She’s spent eight years silently wanting me, yet I’m the last man who should touch her. She deserves everything—love, desire, a life free from the wreckage of my past. But the moment she becomes my wife, even in name only, the pull between us becomes impossible to ignore. Her ex-fiancé is circling back, determined to reclaim her. But I won’t let that happen. I’m supposed to protect her, not want her for myself. Yet every look, every touch, tempts me to cross that line.

My husband and I have daydreamed about moving abroad several times, but we always wondered what the trans-Pacific move would entail. This book explains precisely what to do and expect if we retire in the Philippines. I was shocked at how detailed it is. It covers everything from visa requirements and searching for a home to healthcare considerations and understanding the culture. It takes all the guesswork out of planning the monumental move and helps you relish the exciting new lifestyle you're about to adopt. This is a phenomenal guide for anyone considering moving abroad.

Ready for retirement
As a US citizen, I have always wanted to retire somewhere else. I came across this author who specializes in retiring to faraway places. I am loving this book. The author takes you through everything there is to know about the logistics of moving to the Philippines and the recreation aspect of the area. I am so excited to keep looking into retirement here, as I have 5 years until I'm ready.

With family roots in the Philippines, my parents have been seriously considering retiring back there, and this audiobook couldn’t have come at a better time. It covered every question we had—and a bunch we didn’t even think to ask. From navigating healthcare to finding housing and budgeting in a practical way, this guide dives into details that make the idea of relocating feel less daunting and way more achievable. The section on managing finances once you’re living there was especially helpful. It’s not just a list of facts; it gives you a real feel for what the experience would actually be like. My parents are feeling a lot more confident about the possibility, and so am I. It’s a fantastic resource for anyone considering this big move.
