Why was she a target?
Merci Carson doesn’t have a clue—but she knows she owes her life to the quiet man who roared to her rescue in his snowmobile. EMT Nathan McCormick is used to handling challenging situations, but between the unexpected blizzard that stranded the lovely student and the desperate men chasing her, he has his hands full. Yet for Nathan, failure is not an option. Merci’s bravery and kindness challenge his guarded heart, bringing every protective instinct forward and making him start to hope for the future. Together, they could be something special—if they can solve the mystery in time.
“Footprints lead off this way.”
Merci came up beside him. She touched his arm for support. “Do you suppose the other two thieves were already at the camp?”
Nathan studied the two sets of prints partially drifted over from snow. “Maybe.” They trudged forward in the darkness, heads down.
The wind had distorted the footprints, and Nathan took a guess at where they were leading. The temperature had to be hovering below zero. The wind picked up, making it even colder.
He felt a tug on his coat. “It’s getting worse. I think I need to stay closer.”
Nathan draped an arm over Merci’s shoulder as both of them put their heads down and leaned into the wind.
He only hoped they had not made a mistake. They had taken a gamble that the weather would hold. Conditions were hazardous at best. A little more wind, a few degrees drop in temperature and they would be fighting for their lives.

And this I pray, that your love may abound
yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things
that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and
without offence until the day of Christ.
—Philippians 1:9–10
Faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen.
—Hebrews 11:1
To my Lord and Savior who is patient with me
as I learn to “see” people for who they really are and respond not to appearances, but what is really
in a person’s heart just as God does for me.
I love you, Jesus.

Merci Carson sucked in a fear-filled breath as the car she was a passenger in swerved on the icy country road. The jumpy view through the windshield fed her panic. Her stomach clenched. She braced her hand on the dashboard.
