Aftershock

A 'fast paced romantic thriller' about two earthquake survivors who team up and fall in love is a 'twisty roller-coaster ride [that] keeps pages turning' (Publishers Weekly, starred review).As an emergency paramedic, Lauren Boyer is dedicated and highly capable. Until an earthquake strikes, trapping her beneath the freeway with a group of strangers-including Iraq war veteran Garrett Wright.Handsome and take-charge Garrett aids Lauren in her rescue efforts, even as the steely look in his eyes seems to hide dark secrets. When a gang of escaped convicts goes on the attack, Garrett's bravery makes him more than a courageous bystander to Lauren. If they can save the others before time runs out, maybe, just maybe, they can explore the fire igniting between them-if the truth about who he really is doesn't pull them apart forever. . . . 'As the survivors fight for their lives, Sorenson describes everything in stunning detail to create a riveting romantic adventure.' -Booklist
