Girl off the Grid by Jillian Dodd and Kenzie Harp

Blurb:
From USA Today bestselling author, Jillian Dodd, and her daughter, Kenzie Harp, comes a travel romance that will take you on the adventure of a lifetime. 

NYC fashion blogger, Camille Caldwell, gets offered a dream job by her favorite magazine. They’re going to send her on an all-expenses paid eco-trip to Costa Rica. She doesn’t know what that means, but she assumes she’ll wear fabulous clothes, sip PiƱa Coladas on the beach, and have her photo taken “out in nature.” Really, the hardest part of the assignment will be giving up social media while she’s gone. 

Going off social media is no big deal for London-based wildlife photographer, Adam Lloyd. The only reason he even has an account is to share his photos with the world. He’s thrilled when an international publication wants to hire him, until he finds out it’s a fashion magazine. He decides to take the job anyway—after all, it will be great for his portfolio. But the minute he sees Camille, he knows it was a mistake. She has too much luggage, is too high maintenance, and way too pretty. 

When they meet, their feelings are mutual—they hate each other. Can these two stop fighting long enough to complete their assignment? Will Camille give up and go home when she discovers there’s nowhere to plug in her hair straightener? 

Or will they both realize that sometimes you have to go off the grid to find yourself?

It was founded in 1959 by Dr. Archie Carr. Their headquarters are in Florida, but they have programs worldwide that work to conserve sea turtle populations through education, research, advocacy, and protection of natural habitats. They also have a research station in Tortuguero, Costa Rica which was one of the places they visited in the book. *** 
My Thoughts:
This book was super cute. I was a little hesitant to read this book because sometimes when authors collaborate on books they can be a flop. this book was not thank goodness. if you don't know Kenzie Harp is Jillian's daughter. i like how she chose to write with her daughter. I really enjoyed it. it was fun, entertaining, and romantic. i am a huge fan of Jillian's books, so it was nice change to read a book that was not part of series. i wish the ending was a little better. I would like to see what the future for the characters and what is happening in the future. that book could be in the works but i don't really know. overall it was a good book.
