I wanted to enjoy this as the premise sounded wonderful, but ultimately I found the relationship and the characters to be both dull and dry,.

I'm not a fan of this authors style of writing for some reason. I thought I would enjoy it more. I simply lost interest after a few pages in. DNF


************I received an ARC for my honest opinion from NetGalley*********************

I said it before and I'll say it again: Trish Doller is becoming a must-buy author for me. Her character growth is heartwarming and real. I always find the character resonating with me long after I've finished their stories. Not to mention the men in these stories are goals and the women are inspiration role models who go after what they want. Is that sometimes men? Yes. Is it always their own dreams and goals, men be damned? Hell yes. We love strong female leads.

Doller has a way with romance that makes me believe in insta-love. I love the family dynamics and support systems, I love the way the characters work through their problems and I love the happy endings. Off The Map was another stunning book that I'm so glad I got to devour.

Highly recommend if you love travel, witty-banter and hot Irish men.

The romance in Off the Map really hits the ground running. Carla has traveled to Ireland for her best friend Anna’s wedding; Eamon, the groom’s brother has been tasked with driving her to the wedding. They meet in a pub, sparks fly, and the story takes off from there.

Trish Doller wrote a story perfectly paced for her free spirited heroine. Carla lives her life on her own terms, jumping from one adventure to another. She and Eamon don’t fight their attraction, they just go for it, which was refreshing (this is definitely not a slow burn). Eamon is the complete opposite of Carla, in that he has always made responsible choices, despite yearning to have some adventures of his own. Carla is like the key that unlocks all of the dreams he’s kept hidden away. The two of them decide to take the scenic route to the wedding and have a few adventures together.

I really enjoyed this book (more than The Suite Spot but Float Plan is still my favorite in the series). Carla was interesting and her relationship with her dad was so well written. Eamon was a great hero, although I wouldn’t have minded a bit more depth to him. If you enjoy books with travel and scenic locations, this was a win in that department too. Another great read by Trish Doller. Highly recommend!

This is a great book in a series I really enjoyed. It's an intelligence romance novel. I highly recommend it.

Off the Map was good, but it was my least favourite of the Beck Sisters series. Carla is nothing like me. I found her an interesting character to observe, but I didn’t connect with her like I did with Anna and Rachel. I also found the insta love between Carla and Eamon in the first part of the story a bit difficult to buy into.
However, the second half of the book was great. It had the depth and character development that I love in Trish Doller’s books.
Off the Map may be my least favourite book in this series, but it’s still a solid story that I enjoyed reading.
Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin’s Griffin for providing me with a digital copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Trish Dollar’s third adult novel finds Carla traveling to Ireland for Anna and Keane’s (Float Plan) wedding. Eamon, Keane’s brother and best man, meets her in Dublin and will take her the rest of the way. Plans derail when they lose track of time talking, and attraction ignites. Carla is a traveler, working long enough to get money for her next adventure, a lifestyle that enables her to avoid the harsh reality of her father’s dementia. Eamon longs to travel, but spends his time trying to live up to family expectations; he hasn’t even explored the mountains one hour away. As they set off for the wedding, Carla encourages Eamon to take a chance, but as they take a detour, he won’t be the only one examining his life. Dollar never shies away from tough issues, but does so with humor, compassion and a light touch. I laughed and teared up, becoming invested in the characters and enjoying the Irish setting. Cameo appearances from both previous books in this series was a bonus, though this open-door romance can be read as a standalone. Recommended.

I received an ARC from the publisher and NetGalley. All opinions expressed are my own.

Float Plan is an all time favorite of mine, so I was so excited to get an advanced copy of her latest book! Similar to her first book (in a good way) that you got to enjoy the descriptions of the travel and landscapes in addition to the emotional baggage the protagonists are dealing with! I thought it was a touch too neat that Carla ends up with her best friends brother in law, but enjoyed it nonetheless

Rating: 4/5
Warnings: death of a parent, dementia, parental abandonment
Steam: 3/5
Tropes: forced proximity, it’s just a hookup, cinnamon roll hero

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley for access to this advanced copy in exchange for my honest opinion. Off the Map will be released on March 7th, 2023!

Ahhhh I just love Trish Doller and her work! I was so excited for Carla and Eamon’s story…to see Anna and Keene get a happy ending and most of all, to read a book set in Ireland.

I think this was a really solid book. I loved the adventures, Carla’s relationship with her dad and generally the chemistry between the two MCs. I’m not always a fan of insta-love but I really think it worked for these two. This is by far her steamiest read and I really enjoyed it…I also think it suited the story well. Eamon is the absolute ideal of ideals for a book boyfriend, he is the tenderest of cinnamon rolls. There were some hysterical moments including a bull and some sangria. But really, Trish is at her finest when she is writing about the reality of grief and loss. Carla had a particularly difficult character arc as she is losing her father to dementia. I think this story line was handled with care and so relatable.

My one complaint and I have said this before….these books are too short and they feel rushed near the end. I wish we had more time in the story and with the characters. I feel like we are just getting good and then it’s over.

Off the Map is my official favorite of this series by Trish Doller. It was so sweet and moving. Although I was crying towards the end, it left me with such a feeling of hope and happiness!
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this arc ebook in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

When Carla travels to Dublin for her best friends wedding, the last thing she expects is to give the grooms brother, Eamon, within seconds of meeting him in a bar.
Carla has been raised by her father to travel. Don’t get too cozy, just travel everywhere as much as possible. When her father gets diagnosed with Dementia, Carla takes that to heart and works only to make money to start her next travel.
Eamon has always chose the wrong woman. The more time he spends with Carla, he realizes she is so unlike the past girls that she’s exactly what he’s been looking for.
Is this a meet cute or destined to failure?

Off the Map was fun and filled with adventures that made me want to buy a Jeep and hit the road. It's definitely a rom-com filled not only with great characters, but with wonderful life lessons and a story that will touch your heart.

If that sounds like your sort of read, you'll want to pick this up right away! I didn't realize it was the second in what I'm assuming is a two book series. There were a couple of things mentioned in the book or alluded to that made me wonder if I'd missed it earlier in the book, but once I realized there's a first book, I realized why I'd wondered about those couple of things.

I'll be picking up the first book, Float Plan, right away so that I can fit the rest of the puzzle pieces together.

Pick this up and plan to escape on a trip to Ireland, a journey (or two) of self-awareness, and an entirely enjoyable fun read. Thank you to Netgalley, the author, and publisher for an ARC at my request.

Carla is off to Ireland for Anna and Keane’s wedding when she meets Keane’s brother Eamon. On their way to the wedding Carla and Eamon take a few detours and adventure and hilarity ensues, including a run-in with a sangria loving bull . The more time Carla spends with Eamon her adventurous spirit takes a turn. Can she learn to stop running away from her feelings and give love a chance? I loved this book just as much as Float Plan and Trish Doller delivered again! I deeply appreciated the subplot of Carla’s dad having dementia, as I my grandparents dealt with the disease, my grandfather in particular had Alzheimer’s so I connected very well to Carla’s experience. This is a must read for any adventure romance lover!

With the same skilled hand, Trish Doller has penned another romance with guts. The steam is real; the heartache is real; the love is real. I love that Keane and Anna make return appearances; it adds another layer of “I-know-these-people” feelings. Eamon and Carla are who I dream of being and as long as I can reread this book, I can live through them. Highly recommend anything by Trish Doller!

PERFECTION! I LOVED Carla and Eamon's story! I ate up the pages like they were my favorite food that I just couldn't get enough of. Trish Doller's writing is so enticing. She has a way of making her characters come to life as you read. They are all so relatable that you just naturally feel like you know them and are part of their lives, watching things happen from the sidelines. And oh what a fun, adventurous, steamy, emotionally complicated story Off the Map is to watch unfold!

The immense chemistry between Carla and Eamon powers this love story forward. The emotional baggage they both carry with them evokes all kinds of feelings as you read. The heartbreaking losses they experience brought tears to my eyes. The life lessons throughout the story were wonderful. The ending thrilled and comforted my heart, giving me a feeling of complete satisfaction and utter joy. For me, this story had it all. It's a phenomenal read, perfect for a day at the beach or curled up on a sofa on a rainy weekend. I enjoyed it immensely and highly recommend it to all.

SO happy to have been given a DRC of the third installment of "The Beck Sisters" series by Trish Dollar. I enjoyed the first two quite a lot, and this one is great! Besides the "insta-love" trope story between our two MC's, Carla & Eamon who are on their way to previous character's Irish wedding, and all the call-back's there, we also get a sweet story about the female lead's relationship with her aging and ill father. This one gave me all the feels! Highly recommend for those who read the previous two, but also could work as a stand-alone. My sincere thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the complimentary copy. The rating and opinions expressed are entirely my own.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. This is book 3 in the Beck sister’s book but can be read as a standalone. I loved that this is set mostly in Ireland. This gave me all the feels…

I loved Float Plan, so I was ecstatic to get an advanced copy of Off the Map. Unfortunately, this novel didn't carry the same magic that Float Plan did. Not the right fit for me, but I'll be watching for Trish Doller's next book.

LOVED, Off the Map, a meet-cute adventure story about Anna's BFF, Carla Black, and Keane's brother, Eamon Sullivan. Both these characters were introduced in FLOAT PLAN (one of my all-time fav books), and their coming together in this one doesn't disappoint for even one line.
LOVED Carla's relationship with her dad, Biggie, whose suffering from Alzheimer's.
LOVED Biggie's Stella!
LOVED the Sullivan's.
LOVED LOVED LOVED Eamon.
Give me more Sullivan's brothers, please, Ms. Doller. You have to write Patrick's story now.
LOVE this series.

Trish Doller is 3/3 and now will forever be an auto-buy author for me.

I absolutely adored Float Plan, The Suite Spot and most recently, OFF THE MAP.

While I’m not typically a fan of the insta-love trope, this really worked for me here. Im not going to say it’s because I have a thing for Ireland and Irish accents & really really really just want my little family to move there forever, but I’m not going to say it’s not.

I loved the humor, the chemistry, the setting, and the character overlap. It was so nice getting a little bit more of Anna and Keane in this one. I truly love with authors do this with character overlap (like Abby Jimenez & Lyssa Kay Adams). I also really loved Biggie. 🥹

Overall, it’s a yes from me. If you love a sweet romance, that’ll have you wanting to waiting to pack up and move to Ireland immediately, you need this. 🍀
