Book Description:

A TRAGIC AND HOPEFUL STORY OF LOVE AND LOSS, FAMILY AND SURVIVAL

Victoria Nash is seventeen and tends to her family's peach orchard on the outskirts of a small Colorado town. Wilson Moon is a wanderer with a mysterious past, determined to live life on his own terms. Torie accidentally meets Wil on a street corner, an encounter that will profoundly change their lives.

When tragedy strikes, the girl leaves the only home she has ever known and flees to the mountains, where she struggles to survive in the wilderness with no clear idea of what the future will bring. As the seasons change, Torie also becomes aware of the changes within herself, finding in the wild beauty of the landscape the meaning and strength to move forward and rebuild all that she has lost.

Combining unforgettable characters and breathtaking natural scenery, Life as a River is a poignant story of survival and a passionate coming-of-age drama about truth, destiny, and the deepest mysteries of love.
