New Adult | Suspense
An adventurous debut novel that cross cuts between a
competitive college swimmer’s harrowing days in the Rocky
Mountains after a major airline disaster and her recovery
supported by the two men who love her—only one of whom
knows
what really happened in the wilderness.
Nineteen-year-old Avery Delacorte loves the
water. Growing up in Brookline, Massachusetts, she took
swim
lessons at her community pool and captained the local
team;
in high school, she raced across bays and sprawling North
American lakes. Now a sophomore on her university’s
nationally ranked team, she struggles under the weight of
new expectations but life is otherwise pretty good.
Perfect,
really.
That all changes when Avery’s red-eye home
for Thanksgiving makes a ditch landing in a mountain lake
in
the Colorado Rockies. She is one of only five survivors,
which includes three little boys and Colin Shea, who
happens
to be her teammate. Colin is also the only person in
Avery’s
college life who challenged her to swim her own events, to
be her own person—something she refused to do. Instead
she’s
avoided him since the first day of freshman year. But now,
faced with sub-zero temperatures, minimal supplies, and
the
dangers of a forbidding nowhere, Avery and Colin must rely
on each other in ways they never could’ve
imagined.
In the wilderness, the concept of
survival
is clear-cut. Simple. In the real world, it’s anything
but.

Re: Girl Underwater
I enjoyed reading your posting, and your honesty, as well as
your sincerity came through loud and clear. I wish you all
the best as you go through your residency, since that is the
toughest part of your new career, as well as your 2nd career
as an Author. I'm looking forward to reading your book.
The story line sounds like a real page-turner, and knowing
it was written from the heart, will make reading it that
much more enjoyable!! Congratulations on your new book, and
I'm sure that I'll be looking forward to reading more from
you!!
