Chelsea Cooper and Drew Russo meet every Friday night with a group of friends for drinks. Chelsea’s best friend, Bianca is engaged to Drew’s best friend Jimmy—so they see each other frequently. And they don’t get along; not even a little bit. He thinks she’s boring because all she does is talk about her job as a book narrator. Chelsea thinks Drew is obnoxious. Things heat up when Chelsea finds out that Bianca and Jimmy plan to elope and Drew is tasked with keeping Chelsea from ruining the wedding.
Drew and Chelsea decide to fly to the destination wedding venue. Loved that Drew made so many wrong turns to the local airports that the couple was forced to drive to South Carolina. I enjoyed the couples banter—they really couldn’t stand each other. And, they were going to be stuck in Drew’s car for two days! This plot choice made for a fun read. Loved the road trip snack stops and conversations. Loved the scene when Chelsea decides to conquer her fear of bridges by driving over a 17 mile bridge! Samantha Chase does a fabulous job with this scene as Drew talks a truly petrified Chelsea through the drive. That’s when I realized Drew was one of the good guys and that he and Chelsea had chemistry.
Both Chelsea and Drew realized that they let their friends influence their opinions of one and other. Their relationship changes as they drive toward their destination. I liked that Drew was on a mission to get to know Chelsea on his own terms.
Samantha Chase’s Road Tripping series is different from her other contemporary book series—it focusses completely on the couple and their road trip destination. The down to earth banter between the couple kept me reading -it was so spot on and relatable. I loved that the author dealt with Chelsea’s friendship with Bianca. It’s hard to admit and accept that a longtime friend—isn’t really your friend. Wrong Turn is a sexy romance between two people who weren’t looking for love. An unexpected road trip provides Chelsea and Drew with the opportunity to get to know each other on their own terms.
Samantha Chase’s Wrong Turn is a fun, flirty, sexy opposites attract romance. It’s the perfect read during the #StayAtHome lockdown! You will fall in love with Drew and Chelsea as they navigate through several roadblocks during their journey. And watch for the grand gesture-it’s pure Samantha Chase.
