Spotlight and giveaway: The Middle of Somewhere

Today we're proud to feature The Middle of Somewhere by Sonja Yoerg. She has TWO copies to share with some lucky US readers!

A young woman, widowed and troubled, hikes from Yosemite Valley deep into the wilderness to elude her shameful past in this emotional page-turner from the author of House Broken.

​ ​With her thirtieth birthday looming, Liz Kroft is a heading for the hills—literally. Her emotional baggage weighs her down more than her backpack, but a three-week trek promises the solitude she craves—at least until her boyfriend, Dante, decides to tag along. His broad moral streak makes the prospect of confessing her sins more difficult, but as much as she fears his judgment, she fears losing him more. Maybe.

​ ​They set off together under blue skies, but it’s not long before storms threaten and two strange brothers appear along the trail. Amid the jagged, towering peaks, Liz must decide whether to admit her mistakes and confront her fears, or face the trail, the brothers and her future alone.

"By the time you finish this wonderful novel--driven by a pulse of dark secrets and looming danger--you'll feel as if you've hiked the John Muir Trail."
