Unlikely Allies by Tiffany King
Add it to Goodreads | Buy it on Amazon
Eighteen-year-old Kimberly gets the shock of her life when she learns the father she thought was dead is not only very much alive, but never even knew she existed. Angry with her mother for lying all these years, Kimberly flies to Colorado to meet the father she knows nothing about before heading off to college in the fall.

Her father’s world turns out to be nothing like she expected. Rather than the typical nine to five lifestyle, Kimberly’s father runs a summer foster camp that teaches young children skills to build their confidence and self-esteem. The Colorado Rocky Mountains are a different world than the sunny shores of California, taking Kimberly completely out of her element, and causing her to second-guess her spur of the moment decision.

Never being one to quit anything, Kimberly is determined to show her father that a surfer girl can fit into this rugged mountain wilderness. That is if she can deal with Mason, an arrogant nineteen-year-old guy who has made it his mission to point out every mistake she has made since her arrival. While she would love nothing more than to rub it in his know-it-all face, Kimberly can’t deny the feelings he stirs up inside her, or the chemistry between them, even during their verbal assaults.

When a tragic accident leaves them stranded in the mountains, Kimberly must use her shaky skills to save Mason and survive the elements. Suddenly, fighting is the last thing on their minds as they must rely on each other if they want to live. In their struggle for survival, they realize what they thought they knew about each other isn’t true after all.
My Review
I normally don't mention covers but I just got to say I freakin' LOVE this cover...maybe it's because I was one of the first people to see it and got to do the cover reveal with SupaGurl...but when I saw it I couldn't stop staring! It's just so intense!
Kimberly is the perfect main character!  She really finds out more about herself because what would you expect when she is meeting her father for the first time!  She is shy and insecure but completely determined.  Her determination is my favorite thing.  She's determined to show her father how strong she can be and she's determined to show Mason how he's not affecting her.
Speaking of Mason...well you can't not fall in love for him in the first second he comes in the picture.  Well especially since he's chopping wood, shirtless!!! YAH now I know you gotta read this book! am i right?!  If you like snarky and sarcastic guys then Mason is your man.  The relationship between Kimberly and Mason is VERY much a love/hate one...mostly hate and it's SO HOT.
This book is full of adventure, a great romance, and a story that is easily relatable!  Tiffany King is an AMAZING writer and Unlikely Allies is my favorite of them all! Which is saying a LOT!!! Read this!

  3. This book sounds interesting. I like the premise of Kimberly's father's camp. There are a lot of different directions a novel like this one could go. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

  4. I have never read one of Kimberly's books, and somehow you have managed to make me feel guilty lol The description sounds intriguing and I would love a chance to see where this story goes. Nothing beats getting stranded with a hot guy and (probably) forced to save his life. If that doesn't spell love I don't know what does!

    Thanks for the giveaway :)
