My review: 4 out of 5 stars
Read for my March 2023 Reading challenge, prompt 9: Luck of the Irish: character, author, story. This one has Irish characters. Based in Ireland.
Trish Doller's idyllic romance Off the Map proves sometimes a wrong turn can lead to the exact right destination.
On the road to love, you don't need a GPS...
Carla Black’s life motto is “here for a good time, not for a long time.” She’s been traveling the world on her own in her vintage Jeep Wrangler for nearly a decade, stopping only long enough to replenish her adventure fund. She doesn’t do love and she doesn’t ever go home.
Eamon Sullivan is a modern-day cartographer who creates digital maps. His work helps people find their way, but he’s the one who’s lost his sense of direction. He’s unhappy at work, recently dumped, and his one big dream is stalled out—literally.
Fate throws them together when Carla arrives in Dublin for her best friend’s wedding and Eamon is tasked with picking her up from the airport. But what should be a simple drive across Ireland quickly becomes complicated with chemistry-filled detours, unexpected feelings, and a chance at love - if only they choose it.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me a copy of this audiobook. Please note, although I received a copy of this audiobook in exchange for a review, all opinions remain my own.
This started out as a light fluffy romance book and quickly turned into something more serious. When Carla goes to Ireland for her best friend's wedding, she meets Eamon, what they find together is something neither of them was expecting. Carla's "here for a good time, not for a long time" life motto is about to be challenged by her time with Eamon.

What happens in her time in Ireland is just amazing but what happens after is even more special. I loved the story that develops when Carla lets the walls come down (so to speak). While I found myself tearing up a few times, it wasn't ever out of control for me and overall, the book ended quite beautifully for me. This is an author I would definitely listen to again.
