Publisher's summary

"He's going to find me," Sarah whispered. "He's going to find me before you do."

One wrong step in Los Angeles leaves Alex Pascal scarred and traumatized, unable to continue the career she loves.

In England, a drunk driver shatters Sarah Kent's family.

For Sarah, leaving England to explore the North Cascades is an opportunity to regain her health and her confidence, while Alex has already abandoned LA to make the mountains her home. Drawn to the beauty and history of Desolation Peak, Sarah is hiking alone when a storm leaves her stranded. Determined to track her down, Alex heads into the wilderness, never anticipating the terrible danger she will face. Because Sarah is already running for her life, fleeing from a ruthless criminal with a mission to complete and nothing left to lose. With everything stacked against them, neither woman expects to survive, let alone fall in love. All they have to do now is find a way out.

Great Story With Perfect Narration!

A great story of love and survival, beautifully narrated by Nicola Victoria Vincent. Cari Hunter's writing is both tender and exciting and Nicola Victoria Vincent brings to life both the harsh environment and the array of characters, all of whom are so well defined. She is lovely to listen to and the characters are a real treat. I am happy to see that both narrator and author are doing more books together as they make a great team and long may that continue! My only slight criticism is a technical one: There is not enough space at the end of chapters before the next chapter heading but obviously this must be down to whoever produced it. The last line of each chapter is meaningful and the impact of that is significantly diminished if it rushes into the next chapter. That aside, I highly recommend this book and cant wait to listen to more. Fantastic!

Intense, but Bearable... Series... Please?

I stutter stepped in the beginning. I don't handle violation well. This thriller, thankfully, spared me from that. Instead, this is an excellently written and narrated story of two strong women strengthened further by their individual pasts, intertwined present, and future filled with hope for brightness and light.

Excellent!

I love Cari Hunter books. I haven't listened to one that I didn't love. This one (and the next in the series) is different than her other books because it takes place in the US. It's an exciting book about two women that go way past what they thought they could handle to survive. Lots of action with a romance underneath. While I might reluctantly agree that Nicola Victoria Vincent isn't the best at American accents and occasionally says some words differently than Americans do, I still love her narration and won't say anything bad about her.

Great story

The focusing on the story and not on sex was good but when there was sex it was refreshingly not too detailed.
The narrator was good with the American accents but not with the British.
We enjoyed it driving through PA

I loved this book!

Any additional comments?

WOW! What a great listen. You will not stop once you start. Excellent story. Excellent narration. Some people will find the violence against women hard to take. But it is necessary to the plot and does not detract from the quality of the story.

Story is fine, writing is solid, narration is lacking

Not my favorite of Cari Hunter’s books- I prefer mysteries and this is more of a thriller, but the character development and writing are good. The narration is totally off. The narrator is the same as the other books and like the other books, when not performing dialogue, the narration becomes very monotone. In this book, she is trying for an American accent for most of the book and it is totally off. It seems that she is trying for a Boston accent but what she gets is more of a robotic generic American accent with what I can best describe as Long Island inflection on some vowels and r’s. Many words are pronounced incongruously with any American accent. It’s very odd and distracting- not a very pleasant listen.

Wonderful story, but the narration by Nicola Victoria Vincent was like running a marathon.

Cari Hunter is a wonderful author with tremendous Talley for creating great characters and plots. It’s a shame Nicola Victoria Vincent read the story creating run on sentences. The announcements of the start or a new chapter was connected to the last sentence from the previous chapter. The was no pause, breath, anything for listeners to transition into the new chapter. I enjoy fast moving books, but, I’m exhausted from this one. Again, the plot and characters were great; should I decide to pick it up again, I think it will be an e-book or paperback but not audible with this narrator.

On the run together in the wilderness

This author has come a long way in her craft since her earlier books, such as this one. The usually five star talented narrator was at a disadvantage in reading with an American accent rather than the usual variety of accents found around the United Kingdom. Still worth a few hours of listening. I hope the future works by this author will have the main characters exposed to less violence. The plot twists, suspense, action, and humor of her writing are all plenty gripping to carry the listener along on her well crafted stories.

On Point!

I really enjoyed this book. Good plot, mystery and suspenseful. Loved both MC, and the narrator was good. I've read 4 other books by Cari Hunter, this is my favorite one so far. I can't wait to read more of her books.

Cari Hunter does it again!!!

I really like Cari Hunter’s books. This one is no exception. The setting is definitely the highlight for me. It is an unforgiving unrelenting character. #mountains #actionthriller #lgbtqa+ #tagsgiving #sweepstakes
