Field Rules

The first book I've read by Carla Luna, but it sure won't be my last! I'm especially looking forward to reading more books in the series (I so want a HEA for Dusty and Stuart, too!)

Never in a million years did I think I would enjoy an archeologist romance as much as I did. And the great thing is that I didn't enjoy just the romance I also really enjoyed the archeological aspect of the story as well. I was worried about the going in. I'm not familiar with archeology and I thought maybe I would be bored with the details of an archeological dig, but I wasn't. I was actually fascinated. Of course, there were words I didn't know how to pronounce (mostly having to do with the location) and acronyms I didn't know what they stood for but that didn't hinder how much I loved this book.

This is a second chance romance between Olivia and Jack. You can feel the connection and passion between the characters right from the beginning even though at that point they weren't even friends and hadn't seen each other in 7 years. I loved how they communicated with each other all throughout the book although I would say at the times when it was most important, they didn't communicate as well but no one is perfect. I loved how they were always praising each other as well as everyone in the group. I was totally waiting for there to be some sort of drama between the group of people but there wasn't they always stood up for each other and helped each other out. 

I loved most of the characters in this book but of course there are always some characters that you just can't stand. I look forward to reading more books in this series because I am pretty sure we will be getting stories from some of the other characters in this book. I really hope the author also decided to write a follow up story for Olivia and Jack because I would really love to see them on their next adventure. 

If you love a contemporary second chance romance that is also academic but not in an overwhelming way, I would definitely recommend you give this book a try.
