Girl Underwater Audiobook (Free)

An adventurous debut book that cross cuts between a competitive university swimmer’s harrowing days in the Rocky Mountains after a major airline disaster and her recovery supported by both men who love her-only among whom knows what really happened in the wilderness.

Nineteen-year-old Avery Delacorte loves water. Growing up in Brookline, Massachusetts, she got swim lessons at her community pool and captained the local team; in high school, she raced across bays and sprawling North about Lady Underwater American lakes. Now a sophomore on her behalf university’s nationally positioned team, she challenges under the pounds of new objectives but life can be otherwise pretty good. Perfect, really.

That changes when Avery’s red-eye home for Thanksgiving makes a ditch landing in a mountain lake in the Colorado Rockies. She is one of only five survivors, which includes three little kids and Colin Shea, who happens to be her teammate. Colin can be the just person in Avery’s college existence who challenged her to swim her personal events, to become her very own person-something she refused to do. Instead she’s prevented him since the first day of freshman season. But now, faced with sub-zero temps, minimal supplies, and the dangers of a forbidding nowhere, Avery and Colin must rely on each other in ways they never could’ve imagined.

In the wilderness, the idea of survival is clear-cut. Basic. In the real world, it’s anything but.
