Hi Fatima,
Did you read this book in English, or in translation (if so, which language?).
Approximately when did you read it (year or years), and in which context, please? (At school, from library, new from bookstore, etc.). :)
What sort of environment or climate are they in? Snowy or tropical or a specific country.?
Any romantic content between the male and female? Can you remember how they ended up in the situation? Plane crash or..?

There's a list you might like to take a look through as well, to see if anything seems familiar:

The "they live in a cage" is a typo, right (title?). Cave, yes? ;)
