Gear lists, weather patterns, mountain routes down to the mile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut nothing prepared me for the moment I watched my best friend fall into the abyss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter Finn's accident, I walked away from the mountains to fix up the abandoned lodge we bought as teenagers so he has a safe place to recover. The man who sold us the place is gone, but his granddaughter, Clementine, is here, and she needs a partner to enter a high-stakes wilderness competition with a cash prize she's desperate to win.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe knows design. I know survival. So we strike a deal: She helps me finish the lodge, I help her win.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis year, the annual competition is bigger than ever, so we start training-hard. While I had my doubts initially, Clementine doesn't quit, even when she should. I've summited K2 and Everest, but I've never encountered anything like her. She's too young, too sunlit, too...everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd the longer we work together, the harder it is to pretend this partnership, and my time in Alaska, is temporary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClementine Lennox\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNewly promoted principal dancer with the New York City Ballet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat's what was meant to happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstead, I packed up my dreams and fled to the remote town where I spent my childhood summers. The only goal I have now is paying off the mountain of debt that followed me across the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy solution? Winning Wild Trails-with the help of legendary mountaineer Alec Hastings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlec is enigmatic and intense, and though he pushes me to the brink, he's always there to catch me. His faith in me makes me feel like I still matter...like I'm not a failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith each milestone I achieve, I prove to myself that I'm more than the sum of my broken dreams-and that I'm allowed to choose myself. And I might have to. Because Alec has always chased the next adventure, and with the clock ticking on our agreement, I have a feeling he'll be gone when the seasons change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 404\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 05, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47370394992779,"sku":"9781964675060","price":41.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2579\/7259\/files\/fqv3xI9oxD9781964675060.webp?v=1781633362","url":"https:\/\/thetaletrade.com\/products\/highest-point-paperback","provider":"The Tale Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
