................................. Surviving the plane crash was the
easy part. After losing someone close to her, nurse Joelle Diedrich
needs a change of scene. But stepping in as a last-minute medical
escort on a prisoner transfer flight results in a bigger one than
she bargained for. Waking in the wreckage of a crash, Joelle
swiftly gathers that no one else on the plane was what they seemed.
And if she wants to make it out of this alive, she must place her
trust in the only survivor who's not trying to kill her: Beck, the
convicted murderer who was being transported. Fleeing with Beck
presents more than one danger - not only that of simple survival
across treacherous terrain, but by making Joelle a target in a
ruthless plot. As the threats multiply and Beck and Joelle grow
closer, Joelle has to ask herself just how much she's willing to
risk for a man she's just met, and figure out whether Beck will
risk the same for her . . . .................................

mystery romance with a twist I couldn't have predicted' 'All this

recommend this as a action suspense romance' 'Fast-paced and
entertaining' 'I enjoyed this book, particularly the relationship
between Beck and Joelle and their amusing dialogue! It reminded me
of a mix between Con Air and Romancing The Stone'

and apply. Readers of Fly-Tying will learn every skill necessary to

to tie hundreds of different patterns. With a new color photo
