Charlene (Charlie)
Bennett is a simple waitress in the wilds of Hyder, Alaska whose father
has just gone missing. Isolated and alone, her fathers’ disappearance is
nothing new to her, but this time things are a little different.
For starters, there is a handsome stranger, Daniel that has come to town and while Charlie has never taken more than a passing interest in strangers, she has an immediate and intense attraction to this one. Secondly, she’s soon to find out that this stranger isn’t what he appears. He’s about to throw Charlie’s entire world into a major upheaval.
Now Charlie has to decide if she believes this strangers’ incredible story and follow Daniel or if she wants to stay in the only home she’s ever known for an uncertain future and an absentee father. As she comes to terms with what Daniel shows her, she realizes that he’s the only true thing in her life and leaves everything she knows behind to follow the handsome stranger.

10 Fun Facts about the Author!
1) My childhood dream is to live in London, England. I love everything British and even drinkimported English tea like a closeted Brit. (Shhh, don’t tell anyone)
2) I’m fluent in many languages – Sarcasm, Profanity and Double Entendres, just to name a few. (Bet you thought I was serious)
3) I’m incredibly clumsy and have tripped over my own two feet more times than I can count. Mostly it happens when I’m wearing flat shoes and on even pavement. I’ve never taken a fall wearing high heels.
4) Speaking of shoes, I spend more money on shoes (preferably platform boots please) than I do on fixing my car, groceries or anything else. I have multiple pairs that are far too high for me to wear that I still have in boxes. I refuse to get rid of them, eventually I will wear them.
5) I subscribe to a theory of radical honesty, meaning that I do everything in my power to not tell a lie. I do however, refuse to tell anyone my correct age, and I never will.
6) I believe in ghosts, so much so that I’m convinced that there was a ghost of a nurse in my childhood bedroom. I’m still scared to sleep alone in that room.
7) I refuse to eat any food that has feet or face still attached to it. So peel and eat shrimp, crab legs, lobster, fish, etc., I won’t even eat if it’s on the table. It just freaks me out.
8) I’m scared of most all bugs, snakes and general creepy crawly things, except spiders. Spiders are cool and don’t scare me at all.
9) I have the biggest sweet tooth ever! I keep jars of candy and sweets all over my home, work and car. I always have something, even if it’s only gum.
10) I hate having my picture taken, and my mother insists that there is more footage of Bigfoot than there is of me. (She’s probably right too)
