author: Williams, Suzanne D.
description: The silence of his exit soured the food. Brenna lay down and stared toward the ceiling, yet past it toward the moment Kees had fired his rifle and shot the grizzly. He didn’t see what she did – skill and knowledge earned through hard work, and some God-given sense no one else seemed to have. He wanted her to let go, but like her love for Montana, he’d grown in her, as fixed as the mountains that made this land what it was. And no amount of man’s efforts could remove either one.
  After yet another argument with her dad,
  Brenna Stratton
   fled into the rain, riding her horse deep into the Montana countryside. An expert horsewoman, she has no fear of survival, until a mudslide traps her on the backside of a mountain face-to-face with a male grizzly.
  The irony of being asked to locate the one girl he can’t stand struck
  Kees Butler
   from the start. Brenna has tailed after him for years with stars in her eyes. But in this wet weather, he’s the best tracker in the area and probably the only man who can find her and come out alive.
  A stare down with an angry bear is only the beginning of the trouble, though. Forced to shelter for days in an abandoned cabin, far off the trail, the volatile mix that is him and her erupts once more, lighting a spark that refuses to go out. She is poetry he needs in his life. Poetry, her worsening health and her dad’s hatred for him threaten to leave unwritten.
