Publisher Description
Champion backcountry snowboarder Gage Watson has left the limelight behind after the death of one of his fans. After being sued for negligence and stripped of his sponsorships, he's remade his life as a ski patrol in Montana's rugged mountains, as well as serving on the PEAK Rescue team. But he can't seem to find his footing--or forget the woman he loved, who betrayed him.
Senator and former attorney Ella Blair spends much of her time in the limelight as the second-youngest senator in the country. But she has a secret--one that cost Gage his career. More than anything, she wants to atone for her betrayal of him in the courtroom and find a way to help him put his career back on track.
When Ella's brother goes missing on one of Glacier National Park's most dangerous peaks, Gage and his team are called in for the rescue. But Gage isn't so sure he wants to help the woman who destroyed his life. More, when she insists on joining the search, he'll have to keep her safe while finding her reckless brother, a recipe for disaster when a snowstorm hits the mountain.
But old sparks relight as they search for the missing snowboarder--and suddenly, they are faced with emotions neither can deny. But when Ella's secret is revealed, can they learn to trust each other--even when disaster happens again?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Warren adds another winner to her popular Montana Rescue contemporary romance series (following Rescue Me). Extreme snowboarder Gage Watson can't seem to escape his past. After a fatal incident occurred on his watch on the infamous cliff called Terminator Wall, he left racing and spent three years reinventing himself; now he rescues endangered skiers as a member of PEAK Rescue. Ella Blair, a young lawyer and politician, feels guilty about representing the family of the deceased snowboarder and contributing to the downfall of Gage's racing career. When her brother recklessly decides to attempt Gage's record-setting stunt, she heads to Montana to try to stop him. Gage joins her efforts and their old resentments and revived romantic feelings well up. The emotional content gets second billing to their dangerous attempt to save Ella's brother from his daredevil escapade. When the rescue goes sideways and their own lives are imperiled, Gage and Ella are forced to put their faith into action and confront their past. Everything about this story sparkles: snappy dialogue, high-flying action, and mountain scenery that beckons the reader to take up snowboarding. Readers will recognize familiar friends introduced in earlier Montana Rescue novels, who round out a lively crew with engaging subplots of their own.
