This spiritual romance begins with an Internet relationship that blossoms into a real-life meeting. New Jersey nurse Jenna Blake and Idaho horse rancher Adam Green decide to meet in person in Idaho after communicating online for a year. While on a horseback ride, Jenna and Adam are caught in a blizzard. They encounter three reclusive mountain men who hold them captive. Aided by the voice of a long-dead woman who died where they are being held, the two escape on a perilous journey that takes them through caves, old mines, steep mountain trails, and a raging river, all while being chased by the killers. Finally, Jenna and Adam are rescued by park rangers. Their happy ending finds them the owners of a beautiful white colt with sparkling blue eyes. Such Appaloosas are bred on the Nez Perce Indian Reservation, and it is said their blue eyes are considered a spirit animal. Silent Voice in the Mountains is the first book in a trilogy. Volume 2 is Silent Cries in the Mountains and Volume 3 is Lost Spirit in the Mountains.
