This was my first time reading a FF book and it did not disappoint. I love the suspense and almost thriller I got from this book, with a side of slow-burn romance. The spice wasn't super high, but how the characters went about getting together was respectful and situationally appropriate.

Abby and Whit get stranded in rural Alaska after an accident. While trying to survive the hike North to the nearest town, they notice they have a stalker on their trail. While Whit has all the right experience to make it, Abby is just trying her best to not complain and stay alive, while also being cautious of what could be out there.

Their romance was a background sub plot, with the main focus on the suspense and survive plot, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Who was after them was a somewhat easy guess, but it did get me a little!

I was a little disappointed over how rushed the ending was and after they were reunited with civilization, we didn't get much information of what went on with the case. Overall I thought it was a good read!

Thank you to NetGalley for the chance to read this early in return of my review.

Another winner by Black. This one had me on the edge of my seat with the suspense and the will they or won't they aspect. The romance wasn't the main part of the book though, more of a background thing between Whit and Abby.

Abigail Gardner is traveling around the last frontier in Alaska for her adventure magazine in order to write an article about it. Her last stop is Cozy, Alaska, but her plans get derailed when their driver has a heart attack and they crash. She ends up having to rely on the other passenger who is cold and aloof.

Whitley Travers grew up in the wilderness of Alaska and knows it very well, but after her father's death, she ends up being closed off and resentful of everything around her, including relationships. She doesn't except to be stranded in the wilderness with a helpless tourist, but Abby proves her wrong time and time again.

The only downfall is someone or something is out there making their trek back to safety more and more perilous.

I enjoyed it, but I had a feeling on who it was pretty early on and was proved right, but it confused me a little bit. I didn't like how abruptly the story ended after they were reunited and I felt like things were left unsaid and all the suspense led into the final showdown that I felt ended too quickly and easily after all the buildup.

Overall, an enjoyable suspenseful novel. I received an ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
