Plot Summary of White Out
"Hope Bradshaw has found herself on her own once again. Five years ago her husband died and now her father has left to go take care of his brother after a heart attack. It just figures that a blizzard would be on the way as well. However, she's survived Idaho winters long enough to know what to do during a white out. Stay warm!!!

What she wasn't expecting was to find a local sheriff, Price Tanner, literally collapse on her front porch nearly frozen to death. She warms him up in more ways than one until she finds out that he may not be who he appears. There was a bus accident just down the road carrying officers and prisoners. Is he really a sheriff or is he a convict on the loose?"

Angela Chamberlain, Resident Scholar
