 er that she&rsquo\;s not exactly a &ldquo\;nature person.&rdquo\; How hard
  can it be?</p>\n<p>But from day one\, something feels off. Katie&rsquo\;s

  Katie digs deeper for clues in what the last caretaker left behind\, she 
 must discover courage she never knew she hadâ€•and decide how much sh
 e&rsquo\;ll risk to do the right thing.</p>\n<p><br />Jessica Strawser wil
