I’ve recently been in the mood for a wild ride adventure story. I’ve never read anything like it, but have been yearning for a book like this. I’m looking for… The Mummy meets, Uncharted meets, Indiana Jones meets, Tomb Raider. Something that’s a summer adventure with light to medium romance (I don’t really want it to be the entire plot, but don’t mind a sprinkle of it). Good with modern or historical fiction setting, open to a male or female protagonist, and doesn’t have to be… but I don’t mind if it’s in the LGBTQ+ genre. I would love to hear your suggestions!

man you basically described adventure fiction in nutshell. try looking for books with archaeological themes or treasure hunting plots – those usually have all the elements you mentioned. maybe check out some pulp adventure novels from past decades, they had this exact formula down. the romance subplot thing is pretty common in this genre so you should find plenty of options that balance action with relationship stuff without making it too heavy.
