Author : Tiffany King
Series : N/A
Rating : 3 Stars
Blurb : Eighteen-year-old Kimberly gets the shock of her life when she learns the father she thought was dead is not only very much alive, but never even knew she existed. Angry with her mother for lying all these years, Kimberly flies to Colorado to meet the father she knows nothing about before heading off to college in the fall. Her fatherâs world turns out to be nothing like she expected. Rather than the typical nine to five lifestyle, Kimberlyâs father runs a summer foster camp that teaches young children skills to build their confidence and self-esteem. The Colorado Rocky Mountains are a different world than the sunny shores of California, taking Kimberly completely out of her element, and causing her to second-guess her spur of the moment decision. Never being one to quit anything, Kimberly is determined to show her father that a surfer girl can fit into this rugged mountain wilderness. That is if she can deal with Mason, an arrogant nineteen-year-old guy who has made it his mission to point out every mistake she has made since her arrival. While she would love nothing more than to rub it in his know-it-all face, Kimberly canât deny the feelings he stirs up inside her, or the chemistry between them, even during their verbal assaults. When a tragic accident leaves them stranded in the mountains, Kimberly must use her shaky skills to save Mason and survive the elements. Suddenly, fighting is the last thing on their minds as they must rely on each other if they want to live. In their struggle for survival, they realize what they thought they knew about each other isnât true after all.
Review : That book had me – it was on a sure way to a 5 star and than it happend … You ask what happend ? She stumbled on the street to get help … that is what happend … and everything afterwards just simple ruined it … I did not get it anymore … I could mention half a dozend tiny details … like the mother keeping them apart, the way it was mentioned what really happend to him, this stupid “to which college should i go now” hopping … OH and my absolute favorite … THE END – if the Book hadn’t been finished at that moment i would have ended it on my own. I don’t know what really happend in the writers mind that she decided the way she did – but some minor changes would have given this story a real good burst I am really angry – It had lots of potential
