Dark. Daunting. Unforgettable. Survival adds a demanding edge to love in the wilds.
Tina made a pact with the devil seven years ago. Itās time to pay the piperāor die.
Independent to the nth degree, Tina meets everything in her life head-onāexcept love. When an almost-forgotten pact with the devil returns to haunt her, Tina throws a trip to the Andes together to face her nemesis. Better to die on her feet than wait for him to make good on his threats.
Craig never understood why Tina walked out of his life years before. Heās never loved anyone like he loved her. His mountain guide service takes up all his time, but heās never forgotten her. When his backās been up against the wall, heās invited her to fill in as expedition doctor, but beyond that, heās kept his distance. Having his heart stomped on once was quite enough.
Caught between misgivings and need, Tina signs on as team doctor for one of Craigās climbing trips to the Andes. Though he was the love of her life, she pushed him away years before to keep him safe. Even if he doesnāt love her anymore, thereās still no one sheād rather have by her side in the mountains. And if sheās going to die, she wants to make things right between them.
