Wild Swimming

When the wrong destination with the right person leads to an adventure of a lifetime.

Fliss is turning 35, and the last thing she wants is a big celebration. Desperate to avoid the usual fuss, she books a secret escape holiday—only to discover the destination isn’t the tropical island she imagined but the rugged Highlands of Scotland.

Swapping cocktails for camping and sunshine for rain, Fliss faces a crash course in tent-building, wild swimming, and foraging. Determined not to quit, she surprises herself by finding a sense of freedom in the wilderness. Even more unexpected is Oliver—one of her fellow campers—with his easy smile, quiet strength, and knack for showing Fliss the beauty in the untamed world around her.

But as Fliss’s birthday looms closer, so do the memories she’s tried to leave behind.

In the heart of the Scottish wilds, will Fliss be ready to face her past in order to take a chance on her future?

A gorgeous romantic comedy set in the wilderness of the Scottish Highlands. Perfect for fans of Emily Henry, Carley Fortune, Beth O'Leary, and Annabel Monaghan.
