Resumen del Editor

Escape to the Great Smoky Mountains…

Juliet isn’t sure of God’s plan for her life, but the opportunity to serve as the leader of the Freedom and Faith small group helps her to feel needed, like she belongs. The group plans to hike sections of the Appalachian Trail, using the back-to-nature approach to grow closer to God. Determined to succeed, Juliet leads two other women on a hike, but when she falls ill and they’re days away from the exit point of their planned journey, her friends must call 911. When a man shows up looking more like a grizzly bear than a rescuer, she’s forced to accept his help.

Loner extraordinaire, Jake wants them gone. Except when Juliet and her friends are ready to leave, it’s Jake who succumbs to the illness, and this time it’s Juliet to the rescue. In the process, she discovers a man with a heart and a past. Her failure to lead the group prompts her to renew her efforts to be needed, and she’s determined to help Jake get through more than his illness. When she learns of an opening at the medical clinic in Hollow Creek, she applies, knowing it would give her a reason to stick around town and give her time to help Jake get his life back on track. Her methods aren’t always squeaky clean, but her heart is in the right place. When Jake finds out the truth, the walls come tumbling down.

Can the two of them muddle through the past and their own issues to work out their differences?

Here she is hoping to figure out her life and strengthen her faith. But when she falls sick, she is taken off the trail, and finds out just how unpredictable life can be. Jake is taking care of Juliet while she is sick. He keeps to himself, and is carrying a burden on he can work through. As Juliet gains her strength back though, Jake falls sick and she stays to nurse him back to health. There is an attraction between the two, but there is distance between them that surely will keep them apart. Jake's guilt doesn't him do much of anything and Juliet has made it her mission for him to search his faith and give it all to God. Will he be able to forgive himself for the past?

Rachel Butler reads this story to us, and her voice is exactly the how I would imagine these people would sound. Each voice is separate and concise, with all the feelings to make the scene realistic. I enjoy her variety and the sounds she picks for each character. She makes the listen enjoyable.
