From the back cover:
After years of impatient living and working on his parents’ peanut farm, Dan has finally escaped. Life as a river guide in Moab, Utah, is as far from peanut farming in Virginia as a man can get, and Dan revels in the newness of this life. An awesome job, a cool car, a place of his own—and a gorgeous girl.
Gorgeous or not, Jo has no intention of dating Dan. He’s just a bit too sure of himself, and he shows no interest in God. He’s also got issues to deal with, although, so does she. . . . But as long as Dan avoids God, Jo will avoid Dan. At least, that’s the plan.
When life in Moab takes some unexpected twists and turns, Dan must face who he really is. Maybe all that God stuff is true. But will he let go and believe, or continue to tough it out alone?

Question for today: Have you been river rafting? If not, what is the most adventurous thing you've done?
I have rafted on some fairly tame rivers. And one time we took a mailboat trip up an Oregon river, that was awesome.
ReplyDeleteI've never been river rafting. It might sound silly, but one of the most adventurous things I've done is enter the Budgie Encounter at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. I'm afraid of birds, but I let birds sit on my hands, my shoetops, fly past my head and I didn't scream...I felt so brave! :D
ReplyDeleteDue to motion sickness, water in not my friend, so I've never been river rafting either.
ReplyDeleteI guess the most adventurous thing I've done was take a short hike in a wooded area in Alaska. Luckily we didn't see any bears up close and personal!
I wanted to go river-rafting during my college years (with some friends) but my wise Daddy said no. I did go cave-exploring a few years later, which is something I couldn't do now (due to my back AND being so claustrophobic!).~ I must also add that teaching Kindergarten for years was quite adventurous too, LOL! :) Patti Jo
ReplyDeleteMy dad took me to Colorado when I was a kid, just the two of us, and we went river rafting. Some of my most cherished memories of him are from that trip together.
