Into the Wild: A Clean, Christian Search-and-Rescue Romance (The Station Sisters)

He came to the end of the world to disappear.

She finds people for a living.

Natalie Cross can track a lost soul across bare granite. It’s the one thing she’s never doubted—the gift her father, who led the local search-and-rescue team for thirty years, drilled into her before he died: Be the one who comes.

She’s lived by those words since she was eleven, the spring her mother walked down out of the valley and never came back.

Natalie stayed.

She always stays.

She’s just never let anyone climb after her.

So when a hunter glassing the high country reports a coatless stranger sitting motionless on the cold granite at dusk, Natalie heads up the mountain without a second thought.

Sam Lawson did not want to be found.

A former combat medic, Sam bought the loneliest cabin in Idaho to disappear, carrying a guilt no mountain is vast enough to bury. But Natalie keeps leaving cocoa on his porch. The town keeps feeding him as though he already belongs. And her ridiculous, hopelessly disloyal dog has decided—without consulting anyone—that Sam is his person.

Two people who’ve spent their lives being everyone else’s rescue.

And no one’s.

Then a storm rolls down from the peaks.

A family of four has been lost in the high country for two nights, with daylight fading and the temperature falling fast.

As the search pushes deeper into the mountains, the one who has always been the rescuer suddenly becomes the one who needs rescuing.

Will she let anyone climb after her?

Or will she do what she’s always done... and face the mountain alone?

She’s found everyone but herself.

This time, she has to let someone find her.

Into the Wild is the fourth book in The Station Sisters, a clean, faith-filled small-town romance about brave women, hard-won belonging, and the family you choose. No cliffhanger—just a deeply satisfying happily ever after you can trust.
