Well... you didn't see *that* coming.... darn it!
What happens when you find yourself in a situation where you see no way out?
Do you freak out?
Pray about it?
Stay calm and focused?
Sit down and rock back and forth like a baby with your eyes closed... (Okay, I'd like to say I'd pray, but I'd probably rock back and forth... hopefully, I'd be praying while I rocked.)
When you are stuck in a situation you don't know how to get out of, your real character tends to come through. That's what happens to Rachel Harker and Asher Jenkins during a "one day" hiking trip in the Smoky Mountains-- which lasts more than five.
Lost and alone, they have to decide what in the world they are going to do, who they are going to trust, and how they are going to get down once they find Deep Creek flooded, cutting off their only way home.
As the days stretch on and their conditions go from bad to worse, Asher and Rachel are forced to do whatever it takes to find a way home.
What would you do?

I love the Smokies. t has been a few years since I've been but it is still one of my favorite places. My hubby & I honeymooned in Gatlinburg and did lots of hiking.

Very cool! I love it too. My hubs and I honeymooned there :) I'm sure it's full of people right around this time of year.
I'm always looking for books for my 13-year-old daughter. This sounds like a good one!
Thanks Tamara :) I think it will be :)
