To Melt a Snowdrift

By: Lisa Hatfield

Narrated by: Lisa Hatfield

She’s just along for a fun truck ride, but it spirals into chaos.

Can she excavate her bravery and creativity from the snowdrifts to survive the mountain snowstorm?

Anna grew up avoiding conflict with her mama and fell into the same passive habit with her loving, easy-going husband instead of speaking up about her own dreams.

Now, she worries as David’s behavior becomes unpredictable, and lack of communication has piled up between them like a snowdrift.

He invites Anna to join him on the road in his 18-wheeler, and she jumps at the chance to reconnect and have fun again.

When a Colorado mountain blizzard hits, David’s irrational decisions put them in jeopardy. Will they die before Anna confronts both these unexpected storms?

A good novel with emergency preparedness lessons

As fiction, this was pretty good. The characters are real and their dealings pretty intricate.
The culmination was quite touching.

That being said, at times it seemed to drag a bit and felt a bit like reading "Crime and Punishment" -- you're watching a train wreck (or truck wreck?) in slow motion, knowing that bad things are going to happen though the characters seem oblivious.

In any case, Lisa definitely gets additional credit for this being another good emergency preparedness book. The story helped drive home some good emergency preparedness tips.

Recommend as a novel, recommend again for preparedness.
Lisa is doing a great work with her books.

The narration was pretty good, though the husband's voice was a bit odd, making him seem strange.
