About This Book
A love story born on the edge of survival
Carly Lawson thrives on adrenaline and purpose as a ski patroller at Big Sky, Montana. Beneath her calm exterior, though, lies a closely guarded secret from her past that still haunts her. When she crosses paths with paralyzed ski racer Christopher Markham, the sparks fly.
Chris has spent two years rebuilding his life after a catastrophic ski accident left him in a wheelchair. Once his kingdom, the mountains now challenge his pride—and his Paralympic ambitions. Meeting Carly awakens a longing for connection he's tried to bury under layers of determination and grit.
But as their connection deepens, their insecurities resurface. Carly fears that revealing her past could shatter the fragile trust between them, while Chris wrestles with the fear that he'll never be enough for a woman like Carly.
Can the power of forgiveness heal even the deepest wounds?

This novel is part of a larger series but can be read as a standalone.

The Longest Run explores healing, resilience & forgiveness but addresses difficult experiences that may be triggering for some, including themes of abortion.
