Marieke ~ Marieke's Books's Reviews > Happy Trail

Evaluating your life and the choices you make. Is there a better way to do it, while hiking through forests and mountains all by yourself? Happy Trail tells slow-burn romance of Olive and Jay, I simply adore their story.

Olive and Jay can’t be more different; she’s a true city-girl, he’s a nature guy who loves the quiet surroundings of mountains and forests. Under normal circumstances Jay and Olive wouldn’t have met, but when Olive starts hiking the Appalachian Trail (AT) ‘by accident’, she and Jay cross paths. It’s not love at first sight, but there comes a moment they both realize they’ve found The One.

Olive is a sweetheart who doesn’t know what she truly wants. She goes with the flow, trying to please other people. I love how she takes back control of her life, and how she doesn’t give up. Hiking is not really her thing, but the new Olive wants to finish what she has started. Jay has his own issues. I love that for once the Hero of the story wasn’t the most popular guy in school, that he had (and still has) some insecurities. Olive and Jay are amazing individuals, and I love them as a couple.

Happy Trail is my very first book by Daisy Prescott, and I just love it. Olive and Jay are real people (with both an interesting background) who talk and act realistically. The author has written an attractive picture of the AT and everything involved, it makes me a bit curious (don’t worry, I won’t start hiking the AT with hubby!). This certainly isn’t my last book by this author!

I love Happy Trail; I give the sweet story of Olive and Jay 5 stars.
