Sweet romance on an unforgettable train journey

When aspiring travel writer Beth enters a career-defining competition, she's paired with infuriating, established writer Blake. As they journey through breathtaking Canada, their rivalry turns into something deeper-but with her dream job on the line, is love worth the risk?

Description

He's already famous, she's just starting out as a writer. Together, they embark on an unforgettable journey across Canada.

Beth Greenwood dreams of following in her father's footsteps as a renowned travel writer. But life in Oxford feels stagnant—until she's offered the chance of a lifetime: competing in a prestigious travel writing competition across Canada.

There's just one catch—her biggest rival is Blake O'Brien, a charming, confident writer who's as infuriating as he is intriguing. Forced to travel together through Canada's breathtaking landscapes, from the majestic Rocky Mountains to serene coastlines, their journey becomes one of self-discovery, laughter, and unexpected connection.

As Beth's confidence grows and Blake's guarded persona softens, sparks fly. But with the competition heating up and their goals pulling them in opposite directions, can they take a chance on love—or will their rivalry keep them apart?

Perfect for fans of heartfelt, adventurous romance, Love in the Rockies is a sweet, clean love story that will leave you smiling until the very last page.
