Tour Wars

About the book...
Ten days, two rivals, and a busload of tourists. How bad could it be?
For archaeologist Emilia Flores, landing a fellowship to work at the ancient ruins of Pompeii in Italy is a dream come true. The only catch? She’ll be digging alongside her infuriating nemesis, TJ Mayer, who’s been a constant thorn in her side.
TJ isn’t about to pass up the Pompeii project. Sure, he’ll be stuck working with Emilia, but he thrives on challenging her. And he hasn’t forgotten that secret kiss they shared at an archaeology conference last winter.
Though unearthing Pompeii’s treasures might be a dream, student debt is a nightmare that never takes a vacation. So, when TJ and Emilia are offered a lucrative side job to lead a ten-day tour through Southern Italy, they grudgingly agree to tackle it together.
Forced to set aside their animosity and work as a team, they forge an unexpected camaraderie. As the sparks between them ignite, their rivalry gives way to passion, making it easy to forget their years of fierce competition. But what happens when the tour ends and the real world steps in?
Tour Wars is a rivals-to-lovers, grumpy/sunshine romance featuring a nerdy cinnamon roll hero, a strong-willed Latina heroine, and plenty of hotel hijinks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emilia and TJ are the epitome of the enemies to lovers trope. They've been academic and professional rivals from day one, and all that tension bubbling just below the surface provide for some mighty fine potential when they're pushed together by circumstance one too many times. Let's just say that sparks definitely fly, making their connection a greater find than the most complete archeological discovery you could imagine.
I loved Emilia for who she was... driven, competitive, wanting to do things on her own, and reap the rewards of her efforts. She put herself into everything she did and wasn't afraid of hard work. TJ was very much the same, even if he had bad instincts when it came to matters of the heart, but even he catches up eventually, helping him put things to right and the both of them on the road to a happily-ever-after. There's a lot of fun to be had between the epages, and the story is one you won't want to leave behind come book's end. Good thing a reread is always an option. 😉

About the author...
Carla Luna writes contemporary romance with a dollop of humor and a pinch of spice. A former archaeologist, she still dreams of traveling to far-off places and channels that wanderlust into the settings of her stories. When she’s not writing, she works in a spice emporium where she gets paid to discuss food and share her favorite recipes. Her passions include Broadway musicals, baking, whimsical office supplies, and pop culture podcasts. Though she has roots in Los Angeles and Vancouver Island, she currently resides in Wisconsin with her family and her feisty Siberian cat.
