EXCERPT:
Some thoughtful person had long ago
posted a wooden sign pointing the way to White Rocks Mountain and Devon felt
herself relax. "You can do this," she quietly muttered. There was a
reason why her brother Dan had chosen this section of the conservation area to
mark the twenty-fifth anniversary of their new start in life. "It’s the
place where we left behind our childhoods, our original names and our family.
In a sense, it’s where we were reborn. We were never the same after."
Devon also knew she’d never be the same after fulfilling her promise.

MY REVIEW:
A mixture of suspense, adventure, grief, making new connections, and hope for a happy future . . .
The author has done a fine job of introducing readers to the small mountain village of Maple Glen, Vermont. The village is alongside the Appalachian Trail, and many of the action scenes take place on the rugged trail. The author's excellent descriptive writing made me feel like I was right there in the frozen wilderness with the characters!
Devon Fairchild is visiting the community to fulfill an important and very personal mission she promised her brother, Dan, she would accomplish for them. She knows no one in town, and she is not used to the weather or the challenging terrain. When she ventures off on her own on the trail, she finds herself injured and unable to walk.
When firefighter Finn McAllister rescues Devon he is drawn into her life as her self-appointed protector. Devon is welcomed into the McAllister Family's home when she needs a place to recuperate from her injuries. Because of her past, this family's warmth, generosity, compassion, and acceptance mean the world to Devon. I found this aspect of the story to be very touching and inspirational.
This book is completely clean in
language and content. I received a copy from the author through JustRead
