Up There — Susan Combs

A horseback ride on a summer day becomes the adventure of a lifetime for two friends in a post apocalyptic world. Spared from nuclear devastation, but stranded high in the Sawtooth mountains of central Idaho, the two must deal with their grief as they struggle to survive alone in the wilderness.Wil, an egotistical, middle aged doctor loves a challenge and has the skills to keep them alive. Kayla, a young wife and mother is devastated by the loss of her family and has never spent more than a few nights in the great outdoors. Can they learn to understand and depend on each other as they ride through the mountains to what they hope will be a new beginning? This is a story about loss and courage, hurt and healing. It follows Wil and Kayla as they discover the strength to piece together their shattered lives and open their hearts to each other. Most of all, it is proof that a loving God will not abandon His children in their time of need, and that faith conquers all.
