The Mountain Between Us by Charles Martin

A pretty intense story of survival in the midst of almost certain death, and also a release of the past.  Ben, a doctor, and Ashley, a writer, are thrown together in the middle of a terrible blizzard while trying to get home from Salt Lake City.  This book is their story of defeating the odds after their small plane crashes into the wilderness at 11,000 feet in sub-zero temperatures.  That part is pretty amazing, but the story that resonated with me, was Ben's love story ---as he diligently spoke to his wife via a small recorder that he had brought with him.  He reminds Rachel of how they met and of what he has loved about her and their life, the ups and downs.  It seemed to me that his recording of those memories are what helped Ben to focus and remain hopeful over the weeks of pain and impossibilities.  The relationship of trust that developed between Ben and Ashley, and the twist ending ...make a really good read.  I checked out Charles Martin's blog and may put some of his other books on my list.....he says that his favorite author is King David.  Gotta love a guy like that!
