This summer the Stanley sisters and the Miles boys are excited to hike together again, and now they have the unique opportunity to help two of their ranger friends with an outdoor program in the beautiful Montana mountains.

Marlee has always considered herself a willing follower. Give her a direction and she’s happy to help. Her older sister Ellie is a natural leader, and Marlee is content in her role as assistant.

Marlee and her sisters have been assigned to help with Ranger Rose’s team, and they are savoring the adventure. But in a heartbeat while the group is divided by a few hundred feet, fire breaks out between Ranger Rose and Marlee’s group. In this enthralling finale to the Off the Itinerary series, Marlee must face her fears with courage that only God can provide.

About the Author

 


Liz is the author of the Off the Itinerary series, the wife of a professional tree climber, and the homeschooling mom of three energetic and laundry-producing children. Liz once spent a summer in Colorado teaching rock climbing, which she believes was a fantastic way to make money and memories. She resides with her family in Wisconsin, where they enjoy hiking and rock climbing. Liz and her husband have also backpacked in Colorado and the Grand Canyon, which have provided inspiration for her writing. She makes adventurous stories to encourage others to find adventures and expand their comfort zones (though admittedly, she still needs lots of practice expanding her own comfort zone).

 

More from Liz

After sending my five teenage characters through an avalanche and subjecting them to a lunatic with handcuffs (during a flash flood), I decided that a wildfire was the next disaster they should endure. From a plot perspective, a wildfire allows for much excitement; but I especially love the character refinement that takes place as my cast faces this natural disaster in the finale to my Off the Itinerary series. I hope your family will find encouraging entertainment in Ablaze.

My Thoughts

Chased is the third and final book in M. Liz Boyle's Off the Itinerary series. While it can be read as a standalone just fine, I definitely feel like you will get the most out of the story if you read them all. 

What can happen next to this group of teens who have endured their fair share of natural disasters? A forest fire of course. Once again, this story takes us on a high action adventure that will keep you at the edge of your seat. While I am certainly far from the teenage audience this book was truly intended for, I found it to be an enjoyable read nonetheless. There were certainly times when I could tell it was written for young adults and know that they would enjoy it and connect with the characters even more. The elements of faith mixed in with a fantastic adventure are just the kind of story I would have enjoyed as a teenager, and just the type of story I would like my own teenager to enjoy too. 

Overall, this is a good read. If you have a young adult reader in your life (or just enjoy some great adventure yourself), this is certainly one to check out.
