Publisher's summary

He had a strict "no tourists" policy...

Until she broke all of his rules.

When Graham Barnett named his diner The Tourist Trap, he meant it as a joke. Now he's stuck slinging reindeer dogs to an endless parade of resort visitors who couldn't interest him less. Not even the sweet, enthusiastic tourist in the corner who blushes every time he looks her way...

Two weeks in Alaska isn't just the top item on Zoey Caldwell's bucket list. It's the whole bucket. One look at the mountain town of Moose Springs and she's smitten. But when an act of kindness brings Zoey into Graham's world, she may just find there's more to the grumpy local than meets the eye...and more to love in Moose Springs than just the Alaskan wilderness.

Fun romantic

This was a cute fun romantic summer read. The guy repeats his pet words a bit too much but it makes him a softie inside .

This was different - loved Grahams narration

I've been listening to lots of romcoms lately, so many of them seem to be more or less the same after a while. But this book stood out to me. Graham was very different to other characters in this kinf of stories. Probably because of the genius narration one feels hr always has a smile on the face. Loved to listen. Such a feel good story. So sweet!

Cute.

The book was cute, some parts were pretty RomCom cheesy. Oddly dialed up vocabulary at times, more sprinkled in to ‘sound smart’ vs adding to the story.

strong start

The hero was a little quick to punch everyone in the face and a little wishy washy but is was an enjoyable book.

Escape to Moose Springs

I enjoyed this – my first trip to Moose Springs – where the scenery and wildlife is spectacular, and Zoey is on the adventure of a lifetime. Zoey gets the vacation she always dreamed of and more. She loves Alaska and gets to see what most tourists don’t see when she meets Graham, the grumpy owner of the diner called the Tourist Trap. The supporting characters. Lana, Ash, Easton, Rick, and Jonah, added to Moose Spring’s charm. I want to go back to Moose Springs and find out what happens next to its residents and visitors.

Listening to the audible version, I smiled, laughed, and truly felt as if I were there. The story was alive via all the performers.

Funny, cute, romantic

Actually this book has all the feels. I really enjoyed the story behind the romance. The writing painted a vivid picture of the town, resort, and characters. Speaking of the characters, loved loved loved them!!

I only wish there had been an epilog to let us know how the things in the town vs. tourist saga worked out.

great narration too

Narrated Like Desperate Housewives

I think this could’ve been a better book had it been narrated better.

It reads like a Desperate Housewives episode with its current narration. Kinda irritating and hard to follow. Lots of characters made it even harder to follow.

Good concept. The execution could’ve been better. Kinda bummed because Zoe and Graham’s story sounded interesting.

Saccharine Meet Cute in Alaska

Endearing Alaskan town and way of life with a little too much sugar. Wish the heroine had more gumption and wasn’t such a damsel in distress.
