WILD LIFE

Zoey and Davy

They're walking on the wild side…

The Plan was simple:  find a cure for the cancer that nearly took her sister’s life. But for Zoey Fong, something about The Plan isn’t working anymore. Maybe it’s her unsuccessful research, maybe it’s burnout. But when a crucial tissue  sample accidentally winds up in the hands of a very distracting—and  disarmingly handsome—visitor, Zoey jumps at the chance to follow him  home to retrieve it.

Davy Hsieh’s rugged island estate is no manicured suburban park. His plan is simple: establish a legitimate animal sanctuary and embrace life as a  hermit to make up for a sketchy past. Zoey invading his fortress of  solitude should not, under any circumstances, be a romantic development.

And yet it’s the single most invigorating week of their lives…when they're able to set their many differences aside and embrace  it. Stranded amid all manner of flora and fauna—including a  semidomesticated cougar called Baby—Davy and Zoey first have to survive  the island. Then they'll need to take a leap of faith, maybe even trusting in each other, to save it.
