Temple of Swoon by Jo Segura
368 pages | Published by Berkley
The Set Up: Miriam is leading a dangerous expedition through the Amazon in search of the Lost City of the Moon. Rafael is a journalist sent to document the trip, but is really there as a protector of the lost city to sabotage the entire crew.
If you’re into Indiana Jones or Tomb Raider you may really love this book! This one had a lot more action and danger than the first, so while it’s firmly a contemporary romance, there’s a ton of adventure and a bit of a thriller aspect.
I thought Miri and Rafa had great chemistry - flirty banter was off the CHARTS - but I wished the book was actually a bit slower paced. The ending felt so rushed and I really wanted to sink into the story and the atmosphere a bit more.
On the plus side, it’s a quick read with plenty of excitement and some solid spice.
Thanks to Netgalley & the publisher for the advanced eBook!
