Falling in Angels Falls — Casey Hagen

The black sheep . . . Alexa Dayne shocked everyone by refusing to join the family bakery business. She's worked hard to prove that owning her own salon in upscale San Francisco is more than just a dream; it's her passion, and she's made it a huge success, solo. After years of round-the-clock work, her finances are in the black, and Alexa craves both an escape and a new challenge. She's determined to find both -- in the wilds of Venezuela and the promise of exhilarating adventure at Angels Falls, the largest waterfall in the world. A weary soldier . . . Ben Marx is running from brutal memories. A career soldier turned entrepreneur, Ben has slaved to make Steel Force Adventures a reality. The business of offering thrill-seekers extreme adventures is how Ben intends to fulfill both a dream and a promise to the one person he was powerless to save. On the cusp of success, he's approached by a long-legged vixen seeking a guide through the Venezuelan jungle to Angels Falls. Her fearless determination is proof enough she'll make the dangerous trek alone if he refuses. Her animal print body-suit and makeup scream high maintenance, but her eyes, ice-blue and intense, promise something more. Testing their resolve . . . The Angels Falls journey is one of renewal for Alexa and Ben. But when passions flare and hidden motives are revealed, the flames of heart-wrenching pain forge bonds between them -- bonds destined to be tested by life's harsh realities . . . after Angels Falls.
