36 Hours Serial As a devastating summer storm hits Grand Springs, Colorado, the next thirty-six hours will change the town and its residents forever.... The Parent Plan Part 1 As the rains bring mudslides down the mountain at Devil's Butte, little Vicki Sloane is trapped alone in a dark cave. Anxiously waiting while rescuers search for her are her parents, Karen and Cassidy Sloane. Dr. Karen Sloane is used to being in charge and saving lives at the hospital. But she feels shattered and helpless in the face of this disaster. Her only comfort is Cassidy's strong arms. When he accuses Karen of neglecting Vicki, his anger toward her is as chilling as the cold rain. For rancher Cassidy Sloane, family is the most important thing, and all he ever wanted was to take care of his wife and daughter. But does Karen even need him anymore? She seems to care about her patients more than her family, and now Vicki's been put in danger. Will Vicki's accident bring this loving but strong-willed couple together, or drive them further apart? The story continues in The Parent Plan Parts 2 and 3.
