October Falls - Judith Erickson

. .

Résumé :
Smart, outdoors loving, college professor Katie Carlson makes a poor decision that endangers her life. Reclusive philosopher and writer Chase Harrington finds Katie unconscious at the bottom of a rocky ravine. He brings her to his secluded cabin in the Cascade Mountains of southern Oregon, attending her injuries. The physical attraction they feel for each other is intense and immediate. The emotional and intellectual attraction is less defined, but no less powerful. Or surprising. But they are academics. They rarely act on their feelings and especially in situations like this. Katie is immediately intimidated when she figures out the identity of her rescuer. Chase is on a deadline and he refuses to acknowledge his own feelings, much less considers hers. Chase's carefully planned life did not have room for love. Katie's life was never the same, despite her best efforts. An accident, a rescue, and unexpected attraction require two exceptional people to figure out what is most important in life: meeting a deadline or finding love? October Falls delivers a heart-warming story about finding the courage to trust yourself. ...
