BLERB:
The universe has conspired against Joy Hauk, a thirty-three-year-old millennial trying to make a career as a control engineer. After saving her Seattle based employer's bacon in Marina, California, her misogynistic boss, Steve, throws her under the bus once again and sends her to Quaking, Utah, for an engineering startup commissioning a ski lift.
Cade Hawthorn intends to retire to his cabin in the Sawtooth Mountains with few plans that don’t involve skiing and horseback riding. He fully intends to check out on the world that hammered him when his ex-wife used sexual harassment in the workplace as a way to end their marriage. As a favor to a friend, he agrees to commission one last job—a ski lift in Quaking, Utah.
As their paths become intertwined and the voltage spikes, will Joy’s present and Cade’s past interrupt their happily ever after?
