About this listen

In the archaeology community, Christopher “Kit” Sawyer’s family is a legacy. And while he may be a historian, not a treasure hunter, he thinks he does a pretty good job of living up to the Sawyer name. He's a book-smart research fanatic and does his best work at his tidy desk. No fedora and whip for him, if you please—a nice cup of coffee and a comfy chair will do. But decoding an ancient relic soon gives him more adventure than he bargained for.

Unwittingly, he unleashes a force he doesn't know how to control. And now he has to reunite the relic with a powerful Aztec God. The trouble with that? Kit doesn’t where to find the Tlaloc’s temple. No one does, in fact. Finding it could be a discovery for the ages. It could also lead to his untimely death. So...yay? But it’s not like he has a choice. So off to the Mexican jungle he goes.

At least he isn’t going alone.

Ethan Stone, former stepbrother and overall pain in the rump, horns in on the expedition. An experienced archaeologist, he's only coming along at their grandfather's request—which annoys Kit to no end. But he knows Ethan is just the right person to get them through the jungle safely. It’s just too bad someone is trying to beat them to the temple. And he’s willing to do anything to get there first.

Ethan thinks Kit is in over his head. Kit is secretly afraid he just may be right. In manners of archaeology...and manners of the heart….

I found the story totally enthralling. From the first page to the last I was caught up in the suspense and adventure.
The characters are well developed.
The narration from Joel Lesley is perfect as ever a d truly brings the book alive.

This is another great book from SE Harmon, she always writes with great humor and gives her characters depth and chemistry. In this book she has departed from her ‘Spooky Business’ series and introduced us to two new characters, Kit Sawyer and Ethan Stone. There is plenty of adventure and and more importantly a great plot in this Indiana Jones type story with Kit and Ethan going into the Mexican Jungle looking for a lost city and temple, there is a curse and of course a baddie looking for lost treasure. It has it all! 10/10
I hope Ms Harmon continues with this series it has much potential.

This is an entertaining story about Christopher “Kit” Sayer and Ethan Stone. Kit is most happy when doing research. He enjoys this and not the archeological discoveries. While doing research he stumbles into a paranormal force in a crown that won’t leave him alone. This gets entertaining what this force does to Kit.
He finds the need to reunite the relic with the Aztec God but doesn’t know how to find the God’s temple.
That’s how he ends up going to the Mexican jungle. Meanwhile when visiting his grandfather, thanks to his grandfather’s interference, Kit’s stepbrother, Ethan, goes with him.
Ethan is an experienced archaeologist. He is just what is needed to help the somewhat bumbling Kit. This is where the attraction between the two is faced.
The narration by Joel Leslie makes this an easy listen.

Fun story

This is one of my favorite reads of the year! Harmon delivers as always on snarky characters with great banter, but here we also have an extremely entertaining adventure tail. I was never really an Indiana Jones kid, but even I was getting swept up in the thrill of discovery, and the fear of what Kit was going through. There's definitely tension, especially as it's obvious to the reader how the two feel about each other, but since this is a single POV, we get to live in Kit's oblivious head. It leads to a slow burn that just works since there is so much else going on at the same time. It's cliched, but I laughed AND I cried, and I just really want there to be more.

Give me more!

Oh my gosh, I was incredibly pleased with S.E. Harmon's The First and Last Adventure of Kit Sawyer!

I'll admit, I had pigeonholed Harmon because the only other books of theirs I had read were the first two in the P.I. Guys series. Don't get me wrong, those were both solid four star books for me, they're super exciting and very creative. It is just the tension builds to such a high level it gave me mild anxiety lol. Small doses, but 100% worth it.

The First and Last Adventure of Kit Sawyer is completely different. A cross between an Indiana Jones style adventure romance, with shades of the Ice King from Adventure Time - and those things kept it light and fun for me.

There is some super high octane adventure, and a couple of dasterdly deeds in The First and Last Adventure of Kit Sawyer, but they fit with the arc of the story and work brilliantly. I'm so glad I gave this one a chance, and I highly recommend it!

The audio version of The First and Last Adventure of Kit Sawyer is performed by Joel Leslie.

So Exciting, and Very Romantic!
