Take a Hike! (Everly Heath #2)

Ren

The text came through as I pulled into the carpark of Glenhaven Lodge. My stomach fizzed, and my shaking hand swiped at the notification.

I’d spent most of the beautiful drive up to the Highlands of Scotland wondering if I was making a mistake coming here.

Lydia clearly wanted space. But when I pictured missing out on the final trip – not feeling Gen’s eyes narrow when I opened my mouth, not seeing Amy beam with pride after finishing her final challenge, or not eating one of Claire’s homemade flapjacks, still warm from her backpack – I felt something tighten in my chest. I realised I’d started these trips with Lydia in mind, but slowly, quietly, they’d become something for me too.
