When Adam met Evie by Giulia Skye



Today I am on the Blog Tour for this engaging and adventurous read from Giulia Skye. Thank you to Rachel's Random Resources for inviting me to join the tour and for my copy of the ebook in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. 




Book Description
When former Olympic Swimmer, Michael Adams—now Canada’s hottest reality TV star— insults his fake showbiz wife on social media, he escapes the ensuing scandal and jumps on the first flight to Australia. Desperate to experience ordinary life again—if only for a few weeks—he becomes “Adam”, just another tourist traveling through the Outback. But with a reward out for his safe return and his fame’s nasty habit of catching up with him when he least expects, he needs a better disguise… and he’s just found it.

Sweet and scruffy British backpacker, Evie Blake, is taking a year out of her busy London life. Tired of lies and liars, she’s looking for adventure to heal her broken heart. So when the hot Canadian she meets at the campground offers to be her travel partner through Western Australia’s wild Kimberley region, she grabs the chance, unaware he’s got the world out looking for him.

He’s just a down-on-his-luck traveler, right?




My Review
This is a thoroughly engaging read about adventured and romance and is one you will not want to put down. 
Michael Adams is heading to Australia to try and escape the scandal that surrounds hm after insulting his fake showbiz wife on social media. The one time olympic swimmer who had become a huge Canadian reality star is in desperate need to hide away until the scandal blows over and he changes his name to Adam. 
Evie Blake has made the decision to take a year out from her London life and go travelling. She is fed up with the way her life is heading especially after all of the lies and betrayals that have happened to her. 
Evie meets Adam at a campground. She is instantly attracted to the gorgeous Canadian and jumps at the chance for him to accompany her on her travels through Western Australia. After all of the lies Evie has been told recently Adam seems really genuine as he is just like her and a traveller in need of company. 
Adam is keeping his true identity from Evie and is keeping up with the charade of being a traveller as he doesn't want his secret to come out, especially with plenty of people on the lookout for him. 
What follows is the story of the pair of them as they travel through Western Australia together. It will only be for a short time until all of the scandal goes away. After all he likes it that Evie doesn't know who her really is. But once the secret is revealed will Evie really be able to trust anyone again?
I really loved the setting of the book and found it perfect for some escapism from the grey January days. The setting for the book in Australia sounds amazing and is definitely somewhere I would love to travel to. 
I enjoyed getting to know Evie and you do get a good understanding of why she had such a lack of trust after being lied to and having her heart broken. 
The character of Adam was difficult to like with him lying so much to Evie but I did understand why he needed to get away from his life and the scandal that surrounded him. 
I really enjoyed the book from Giulia Skye and I am already looking forward to the next adventure she will be taking us on.
