The Coldwater Fire: A Story of Love and Survival

About this book

Ollie and Carina have shared a lifetime of history, but a single, life-altering choice transformed their childhood bond into bitter resentment. Now, as they approach the end of their final summer at Camp Coldwater, the two settle into a familiar rhythm of icy avoidance, silently counting the days until they head to separate colleges and leave their shared past behind. They are experts at pretending the tension doesn't exist, finding it far easier to ignore their history than to face the truth of what tore them apart. However, their plans for a quiet final summer vanish when a devastating forest fire rips through the remote Idaho wilderness. Separated from their classmates and thrust into a fight for survival, Ollie and Carina are forced to rely on one another to navigate the perilous, smoke-filled terrain. As they battle the elements, the "enemies to lovers" dynamic shifts: the physical danger strips away their defenses, compelling them to set aside their long-standing animosity. Amidst the chaos and uncertainty, they must finally confront the ghosts of their past. This pulse-pounding romantic thriller explores whether the spirit of love and forgiveness can survive when your life is literally on the line.
