Attending a corporate retreat at a remote resort in Alaska, Lisa Vaughn is plunged into the frigid rapids of the Wild River. Swept away, battered and alone, she has been left for dead.
Lodge owner Mitch Braxton knows something is terribly wrong when Lisa fails to turn up for a private meeting to clear the air and close the book on their broken engagement. Embarking on a heroic search that takes him miles downriver, he saves Lisa from the deadly water, but not before they've been swept deep into the wilderness.
Far from civilization, the former lovers must put aside their hurt feelings and find the will to survive against nature. There's a killer on the loose and, for now, they must measure their future together in days rather than years.

Starred review from February 1, 2010
When Lisa Vaughn is eight years old, her mother jumps from a ship, clutching Lisas baby sister in a successful suicide attempt after Lisa manages to break free just before her mother goes over the rails. Years later, Lisas firm has a team-building event in Alaska in a lodge by a treacherous, white-rapids river. Someone pushes her into the water, and her former lover, Mitch Braxton, risks his life to save her as they are swept through the turbulent water at breakneck speed. As Lisa and Mitch struggle to survive in the wilderness, they start to grow close again. But once she returns to civilization, Lisa needs to figure out whos trying to kill her and why. Harpers descriptions of Lisa and Mitch fighting the river and braving the elements are so realistic the reader can almost feel the icy winds. A tale guaranteed to bring shivers to the spine, Down River will delight Harpers current fans and earn her many more.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2010, American Library Association.)
