PAULA'S REVIEW:
Trucker
Kit and ex-cop Cullen meet in a volatile situation during the imminent
eruption of Mount Ember. Their motto becomes: “Faith not Fear” in the
face of danger.
Ms.
Mentink conveys the human condition through the frailties of her
characters. She shows how they are unforgiving of themselves and others
because of what they encountered in their pasts. But she also shows how
they come to realize that they are not God and He requires them to
forgive so that they can move on.
There
is non-stop excitement during the days leading up to an eruption
similar to Mt. Saint Helens. Complications in the form of bad guys
looking for a girl that Kit helped ramps up the tension. Through it all,
Cullen is tough and staunchly defends Kit and an abandoned baby. “Let’s
see what you’re up to here, God.”
This
author sure knows how to put her characters through the wringer and
test their mettle. She ramps up the action and had me on the edge of my
seat in this exceptional story.
A harrowing and riveting story with a spiritual dimension.

BackCover Blurb:
Fire rains from above as they fight to discover the truth and stay alive.
In the shadow of a threatening volcano, long-haul trucker Kit Garrido wakes up in her crashed big rig, unable to recall what happened or why she's suddenly in possession of someone's baby. Fiercely independent, she has to admit that perhaps this time she could use a little help.
As the threat of eruption grows, former cop Cullen Landry refuses to leave his cabin in the evacuation area, which is why he's the only one left who can help Kit escape the crumpled cab of her truck. He doesn't want to get tangled up in the mystery of the beautiful woman with an abandoned infant, but when he sees the bullet hole in the windshield and the bloody handprint on the interior, he realizes that he's in this thing, like it or not.
When two armed men with ill intent approach, the race is on to stay alive, discover the truth, and find the baby's missing mother--all while a deadly mountain rains fire from above.
