Celebrate Lit Blog Tour: Trapped in Yosemite by Dana Mentink

Book: Trapped in Yosemite

Author: Dana Mentink

Genre: Christian Fiction

Release Date: February 27, 2024

When a massive earthquake levels the region, secrets and unknown dangers are exposed…

The ground in still-icy Yosemite National Park isn’t stable, and K-9 handler Von Sharpe fears the worst. But his worries are pushed aside when he sees an SUV viciously forced off the road…with his ex-fiancée at the wheel. It’s only when Stella Rivers steps out of the vehicle that the very ground under their feet cracks and breaks with the onslaught of a terrifying earthquake.

When her meeting with a mysterious client is ambushed, Stella witnesses the man being gunned down by a sniper and becomes a target herself. With the threat of aftershocks triggering landslides and floods, the new mom has no choice but to run to save her baby girl—even if it means teaming up with the man who has no idea he fathered her child.

Trapped in a dangerously unstable wilderness with a killer closing in, Von and Stella are running out of time to get to safety. And every fissure reveals a new secret that will shake them to their foundation…

Christian Fiction if one of my favorite genres. Dana Mentink has become one of my favorite Christian Suspense authors. I recently had the opportunity to read Trapped in Yosemite by Dana Mentink. 

Dana Mentick has done it again, another AWESOME book!  I have enjoyed many of Dana's book that feature the K-9 rescue teams and I really enjoyed this one also. Von Sharpe is the K-9 handler. He happens upon a vehicle that has been run off the road. Stella Rivers, who happens to be Von's ex-fiance, is at the wheel of that vehicle and she steps out just as an Earthquake is shaking the ground. Stella is trying to get to safety and protect her baby girl after being a witness to a shooting. I LOVE how Von and Stella are now working together to get to safety together as the killer is still close by. I also LOVE how throughout their ordeal they seem to grow closer again and have a rekindled romance. Their faith is challenged throughout the book, but they stand strong in their faith. The book has many twists and turns, but it keeps the reader intrigued and to keep reading! I highly recommend this book for anyone who enjoys Suspense, Romance and Faith based books! SPECTACULAR BOOK!

More from Dana

I won’t ever forget October 17^th, 1989. I was finished with my student teaching duties, chatting with my mother while we watched the World Series. It was an epic matchup of two Bay Area teams. As we watched, the floor lurched and the entire house began to rattle and pitch. We ran outside and watched the street undulate like ocean waves. We’d later come to learn it was a 6.9 earthquake on the Loma Prieta fault. The shaking only lasted 20 seconds but 63 people were killed, 3,757 were reported injured and 12,053 displaced. The damage estimates reached as high as $10 billion, with 18,306 houses leveled. Approximately 2,575 businesses were impacted and 147 were destroyed. The part I will remember most was the collapse of a section of the freeway in Oakland which trapped people in the pancaked structure. I remember watching the close space rescue teams work night and day to find survivors.

Little did I know that memorable event would someday lead to a book! This novel combines the iconic California setting of Yosemite and the big fear buried deep in every California’s mind…the big one, the massive earthquake we know will be coming someday. Of course you know there will be a happy ending in the novel, but I hope you will feel the edge of your seat suspense that keeps you turning pages. God bless you, dear readers!
