Image
  Book Rating:  Courtney just started a new job as a one site maintenance person at a mountain retreat in Colorado. She moved all the way from North Carolina to Colorado for the job. She has $200 in her bank account. She is use to living pay check to pay check, but this one is different as she gets paid at the end of the month. She isn't sure how she will survive with just eating lunch with the rest of the staff. Courtney isn't one for wildlife / outdoor life. She doesn't look where she's going. She doesn't know what wildlife might be watching her from the forest. She just hums along as she walks and works during the days.  Courtney grew up in a rv trailer with her mom, always on the move. Living in a tin can on wheels. Courtney has always made her own way never relied on anyone for anything.

  Book Rating Kat works for a local newspaper company. She doesn't get the big stories to report on. She is working the mid school / high school sports teams. She isn't unhappy with her job, just wishes they gave her more to do, bigger stories. Kat loves hockey, always has. One night she goes to a hockey game by herself, and sits next to the glass around the arena while the players are warming up. Kat sees Kris staring at her. Even when hot nacho cheese is running down her chin! Oh gosh she's so embarrassed!   Kris is on the NHL Team for Pittsburgh. He loves his team and what he has been building with the team.
