ON THIN ICE
Run off the road and left for dead, Shay Ridiker’s only hope for surviving the frozen claws of the wilderness is pilot Rick Savage. The beautiful airplane mechanic came to Alaska expecting a routine repo, but a missing coworker and a crippled plane are just the tip of the iceberg. Now held captive by ruthless killers at a derelict gold mine, Shay needs Rick’s protection more than ever. But Rick has shadows that follow him into the land of the midnight sun. With gunmen at their backs, can he be all Shay needs—a haven…and a hero?
How did she thank him for saving her from certain death?
The tenderness and concern she saw on his face was too much. Rick had never looked at her that way before.
His gaze locked on hers, searching, questioning.
She couldn’t let herself be in his arms anymore, and she worked to free herself from his protective embrace. “Let me go, Rick. They’re gone now.”
His eyes widened, as though he hadn’t realized he’d been holding her. He crawled over and slowly peeked through the brush that blocked his vision.
Was she wrong? Had someone stayed behind to see if they’d survived the crash, after all? Her pulse pounded in her neck. Breathe…just breathe.
“Rick, you’re scaring me. Why are you still looking for them? They’re gone, right? Please tell me they’re gone.”
He stilled. “For now.”
ELIZABETH GODDARD
is a seventh-generation Texan who grew up in a small oil town in East Texas, surrounded by Christian family and friends. Becoming a writer of Christian fiction was a natural outcome of her love of reading, fueled by a strong faith.
Elizabeth attended the University of North Texas, where she received her degree in computer science. She spent the next seven years working in high-level sales for a software company located in Dallas, traveling throughout the United States and Canada as part of the job. At twenty-five, she finally met the man of her dreams and married him a few short weeks later. When she had her first child, she moved back to East Texas with her husband and daughter and worked for a pharmaceutical company. But then more children came along, and it was time to focus on family. Elizabeth loves that she gets to do her favorite things every day—read, write novels, stay at home with her four precious children and work with her adoring husband in ministry.

They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
—Revelation 12:11
This book is dedicated to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who died that we might live. Who said, “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends” (John 15:13). And to those who have gone before and serve even now in the armed forces, laying down their lives so we might live, and live freely.
