About the Book
Former pararescue
jumper Orion Starr is haunted by the memory of a rescue gone wrong. He
may be living alone in Alaska now, but the pain of his failure--and his
injuries--has followed him there from Afghanistan. He has no desire to
join Hamilton Jones's elite rescue team, but he also can't shirk his
duty when the call comes in to rescue three lost climbers on Denali.
Former CIA profiler and psychiatrist Jenny Calhoun's yearly extreme challenge with her best friends is her only escape from the guilt that has sunk its claws into her. As a consultant during a top-secret mission to root out the Taliban, she green-lighted an operation that ended in ambush and lives lost. When her cathartic climb on Denali turns deadly, she'll be forced to trust her life and the lives of her friends to the most dangerous of heroes--the man she nearly killed.
Her skills and his experience are exactly what's needed to prevent another tragedy--but in order to truly set Orion free from his painful past, Jenny will have to reveal hers. They'll have to put their wounds behind them to survive, but at what cost?

My Thoughts
Wow what an adventure! I am so excited
for this new series and this first book had me on the edge of my seat
the whole time. I loved all of the characters and I am eager to read the
next story. This book is non-stop action from the battle
field to the mountainside of Denali. I don’t know anything about
climbing and I am amazed that people attempt to climb these mountains! I
was able to visit Denali a few years ago, from a distance of course,
and I didn’t realize climbing to the top was a possibility.
I loved the suspense of everyone trying to survive and how detailed
Susan is with her writing the experience. Orion I think might end up
being my favorite male character I have read in a long time. The romance
and secondary story lines were well written. This
book also makes me have even more appreciation for our military and
those that defend our country. The mental and emotional toll that it
takes on these people is something often ignored or glossed over. This
story was a good reminder for me to be so thankful
for these individuals.
I highly recommend this book! It will keep you up late and holding your breath for what will happen next.
Five stars!
