And as the clock runs out, failure means not just the loss of an innocent life and the woman Caine has come to love, but the destruction of Lenna's entire world.

Three weeks ago I, Rachel Bond, inherited a bed-and-breakfast. In Alaska. Just this morning I was in my warm bed in LA but now here I am, up north-and this is, like, nosebleed north - sorting it all out. So:
PROS:
1. Bears and wolves and moose can't be any worse than LA guys.
2. You've heard of "starving artists?" I'm about to faint. So it's probably time for a change.
3. My good friend Kellan - you'll like him, unlike me, he's cool under pressure - suddenly has this animal sexiness I've never even seen before.
CONS:
1. ALASKA.
2. The house chef can't cook, and the guide can't read a map.
3. Kellan's sudden hotness is getting very hard to ignore.
4. I just got hit by lightning.
And I'm not sure if this is a pro or a con just yet, but since that lightning bolt, I can see through everything. As in completely transparent. That was before things started to get really weird.
