Lyra Jay Kellie has just had the second worst day of her entire life. It's right up there at the top of the list, just under her mothers death day. Her plane fell out of the sky in the middle of a storm and landed in the remote wilderness of the Montana Rockies. Her pilot is dead. Her satellite phone is worthless and she has no idea where she is. Lyra is utterly lost and alone. Good thing she's been taught a thing or two about how to survive from her world traveling partner and father. Then there's Nathan Wesley, a hunter and farmer, who later has the ultimately worst plane ride of his entire existence. Crashing just a mile or so from Lyra's camp site, he's rendered unconscious and cannot escape the flaming plane. Lyra sees the smoke and fire and hopes she can get to the plane in time. When Nathan wakes up, he decides to pay back this wild girl for saving his life by doing anything he can to help her get home. Even if that means risking his life for her. Can the pair survive the harsh Rocky Mountain wilderness and make it to civilization? Or will they fail in the face of an unseen danger? ------------------- Please be easy on me, this is my first official book. It is crazy and has some odd twists, so please do not judge.

"How dare you bring me aboard this ship without so much as telling me what you are?" She yelled. Kincade let out a smug grin, one that infuriated Astryd even more. She took a few more steps toward him so that they were mere feet apart. He looked down at a doubloon he was holding and slowly turned it over in his hands as he spoke. "I saw a troubled woman in a sailor's pub, obviously hiding from the royal guards. Surely you must have gotten yourself into a sticky situation. And you don't expect me to assume what you are?" Astryd fumbled for words. What was he getting at? He lifted his head to look her in the eyes. "You're a thief and now a sailor. You know what that makes you, sweetheart?" "I am not a..." she shouted, but she stumbled at the last word. She pointed her finger in Kincade's face and whispered, "pirate." -------------------------------------------- I would like to acknowledge Thompson Editing Services, who is responsible for being my editor and proofreader for this book as well as an amazing writing mentor.
