I had a hard time putting this down! This was the first Dinah McCall (or Sharon Sala) I’ve read, and I wouldn’t hesitate to read more. The rescue happens rather early in the story, so I wondered what else was going to happen. The weather didn’t disappoint.
My one complaint is that I found it hard to believe that the bad guy would survive as long as he did in the wilderness in bad weather, injured, with very little food and/or water. But I rarely read anything that doesn’t require at l...more

I enjoyed the book in general, though I found myself struggling to suspend my disbelief more than once. First off, it seemed highly contrived for everyone else to die in the plan crash. It just didn't make much sense to me, especially considering the real life crashes that have been much more violent, yet have seen survivors walk away. (IE the 1989 crash in Sioux City, Iowa) And are we just supposed to be amazed that not only did the two senators wind up on the same flight, but it just happened ...more
A suspensful book with some romance mixed in.
I read this multiples times and enjoyed it a lot. There are some gross parts but if you want you can just skip over them.
A story about a young boy, and woman, and a man who survived a plane crash. There was once a fourth but he was killed by another suvivor. The 2 witnesses fled and are being followed by the third. The third wants to silence the only witnesses.

I really liked this book. The only thing that kept it from being 5 stars is that the 2 romances or at least the main romance could have been a bit richer. I'm happy they fell in love, I just wish I could have read more and experienced more about it. I like all the generations of the men being together and supporting each other. I loved the pyschic aspect. I did wonder how the bad guy stayed alive while injured in the weather etc. After all, Molly and Johnny nearly died after only 2 nights....more

I loved this book. Once I had a chance to sit down and read uninterrupted, I never put the book down until it was finished. I cried and laughed while reading. I felt every emotion Dinah McCall/Sharon Sala wanted the reader to feel. My only wish is that the book didn't end!!! I've read several books by DM/SS, and I've never been disappointed.
My first Dinah McCall book and I thought it was pretty good. A young woman and a child witness a murder after their plane crashes in the snowy mountains of Kentucky. They fear the murderer will want to kill them too, if he knew they witnessed his crime. They are forced to run on foot through a blizzard in search of rescue. With the help of a lonely psychic woman who lives on the mountain, the boy's family is desperately trying to reach them in time. There are to romances going on in the sto...more
This novel is a mix between romance and action adventure. The story was a quick and enjoyable read until the end. It lost its consistency and it seemed as if she was just adding random events to add pages instead of using key events to support the plot.
On starting this book i didn't think i was going to get into it, i was wrong and once it had me i was gripped. i wasn't overly impressed with one of the romances, but it didn't spoil the story and is well worth a read.
Awesome book! Once again, McCall delivers. You swear you can feel the cold, the fear of the victims; the anger, fear and desperation of the 'hunter'; the fear, anticipation and hope of the searchers. When Deborah's 'gift' appears, you can feel it happening, and with words, McCall uses them wisely, making you feel like you're there, along for the ride, running with Johnny and Molly, feel the O'Ryan's desperation, and the pull that leads Deborah to them. For some of the characters to find love at ...more

A good read. I enjoyed it.
A person who can see the future helps to find an airplane crash. There are 3 survivors, a woman, a child, and a Senator that kills one of his counterparts when the plane crashes. The woman and child witness the murder and the Senator tries to find them to silence them.
A little different, but good story overall. Pretty quick read.

Interesting book. Written really good. Not my style of book but surprisingly good. I loved the characters although some aspects were not something that would take place in the real world. It was a good story though!
A very enjoyable read. All strong characters, thank goodness no ditzy females needing saving everyone
All members of O'Ryan clan have survived crisis in their lives and become stronger for it

Sharon writes a note to her readers in this book that is worth the price of the book alone. It will certainly send chills down your spine. Absolutely inspiring!
An amazing book. Never a dull moment. Full of excitement and wondering what will happen next. Thanks to Linda for suggesting I read this book!
Just as my co-worker promised; this book flew by! Very fast-paced novel but I was slightly taken aback by the main character's lights-out activities.
Quick read. I found some of it to be unrealistic.
I read this because a friend lent it to me. Weak characterizations and rampant cheesiness.
Couldn't put this one down...turned into an all night read...AND, it was worth it!
Romantic suspense. Very good.
A fun light read
