This novella about Fig and Zarah was super sexy and enjoyable. Fig and Zarah first met as freshmen in high school in America and then reconnect in Italy 17 years later by chance. Their chemistry was instant and they acted upon it. Both realise that they will not let their feelings that they harboured in high school slip away from them again. I enjoyed the other characters too that made an appearance in this short story.
An enjoyable quick read.
This was a sweet novella about Zarah and Fig. They knew each other in high school but they lost touch and years later meet when she is in Italy for her travel blog. Instant attraction and history quickly find these two starting a whirl wind romance.
This is a quick, easy read that will make you want to grab the next book. Loved the characters and how they both had been interested in school but never pursued it. Need a quick sexy read grab The Adventure and start reading.
As always this author delivers an impeccable, wicked sexy, consuming story about two characters you can’t help but fall head over heels for. I am a huge fan and adore Leslie Pike’s work.
They lost touch years ago and fate has them reconnecting at a cafe in Italy. The chemistry immdeiately sizzles between them just while sitting and catching up. The fling of sorts that they embark on is delicious. I could feel the lust and sexual tension from head to toe. Fig and Zarah must have been destined to reunite. Will their Italian adventure have them igniting their second chance at forever? Or will it all end as soon as it started?
Too yummy to pass up! This entertaining read is perfectly paced, witty humor and sexy entanglements are expertly executed. All the detail and back story utterly brilliant.
What an absolutely sweet story of fate! Many years have gone by, but Fig immediately recognizes Zarah whiles she’s traveling in Italy. And he decides that he won’t let her slip away again! They go n a fun adventure in Italy where things heat up. And before you know it, these two realize they want their adventures to end and life together to begin. Short and sweet!
This novella was a quick, fun, sexy romp in the beautiful setting of Italy. Zarah is a travel blogger and Fig is the rich heir to an Italian tyre company. Having met in high school, Fig was too shy to ask out the funny girl he met there, so when they run into each other in Italy, it is an opportunity that is too good to ignore. Zarah and Fig embark on an adventure to reconnect and explore what could have been. Great quick novella that brings a little sunshine into the day.
This is a quick and sweet novella. Zarah is a travel blogger, and while in Italy she spots Fig who went to high school with her. Now fate has reunited them back together, the chemistry between them is undeniable. This is a well written short story which is fun and an entertaining read. I recommend for all.
The Adventure was a lovely novella by Leslie Pike.
It was short but sexy and sweet with lovely characters. I enjoyed the writing and the adventure Zarah and Fig went on that changed their lives.
The Adventure is a wonderful short read! It was the fun and sexy story of Fig and Zarah who reconnect years after high school in Italy of all the romantic places. It makes you realize that life sometimes gives you a second chance for love and you just have to go for it!!

5 Stars
This is a fun and very sexy short read from Leslie Pike about Fig and Zarah, the best friends from the Sexceptional (The Art of Love) characters. They see each other in Italy after many years apart and realize that they both have feelings for each other after a weekend together. This is a great read during lunch but beware of the heat level!
Absolutely loved this short and sexy novella. While on a trip to Italy for a friends wedding, Fig runs into his high school crush/ old friend 17 years later and he’s not about to let her get away without spending their last few days together and letting his feelings be known. Sparks fly instantly again between these two as they reconnect and take off on a mini adventure of their own to make up for the time lost between them. Leslie knows how to write that insta chemistry that just makes you fall hard and really pull for her characters hea, Fig and Zarahs story, although short and sweet is no exception.
This story makes me want to go back to my younger years and live an adventurous life. Never took the time for myself. And to feel the true love that Zarah and Fig have would be amazing. A great short story that will make you feel warm and fuzzy. Even a few laughs and don’t forget the steam!!
I didn’t want this to end! I knew it was a novella coming into it, but still!!
I loved the short story of Fig and Zarah so much!! They knew each other from high school, and they meet up again as Zarah has been travelling around the world.
Their attraction is instant, and something they’ve never forgotten about since HS.
They decide to spend a couple of days together before she needs to leave Italy.
That attraction is palpable off the pages right into you. And you can just feel it!
Everything keeps stopping them from actually going at it like wild rabbits.
It’s funny, sexy, and hot hot hot!!
My fave lines in the book:
1. “Can I tell them your dick came up and cancelled all your appointments without your permission?” – I DIED LAUGHING!!!!!!
2. “If we get arrested, you’ll be charged with concealing a weapon. A big nightstick.” – ROFL!!!
The Adventure by Leslie Pike is such a quick charming and sweet read by Leslie Pike. This novella reunites two old friends who have not seen each other in a very long time, Fig and Zarah. But once they meet again, their connection and chemistry is undeniable. Though the story moves quickly, they have history and a foundation, and you can’t help but fall right along with them. I loved their journey so much. You could feel they were meant to be from start to finish!
Happy reading!
Hot little short read. I enjoyed reading this. Long lost friends turned lovers. The chemistry between Zarah and Fig is off the charts. Another must read by Leslie
