After a plane crash, two strangers are stranded together in the mountains fighting to stay alive. Rusty Carlson didn't like Cooper Landry. She was even a little afraid of him. But he was the only thing keeping her alive in the Canadian wilderness. Nursing her back to health while searching for food and shelter, Cooper wonders how long it will be before a winter storm sets in. Soon they stumble across a filthy cabin with two even dirtier inhabitants.
This book was written in 1987 and really doesn't stand up too well with time. Cooper has a giant chip on his shoulder believing all beautiful women just take advantage of men. Rusty is a spoiled "daddy's girl" who knows nothing about wilderness survival. Except for the mutual lust, they have nothing in common. Brown throws in some bad dialogue and every cliche known to man into the story, but somehow it is still somewhat entertaining. I would give this a higher grade but I really didn't like the way Brown ended the story. The ending was "told" rather than "shown" to us. My rating: 3 Stars.
