Emily Sheffield's parents are the worst. Okay, maybe Emily has been erratic and her behavior a little reckless lately, but shipping her off to live with her grandparents in Alaska is so much worse than she deserves. For Aiden Cohen, life in Alaska is perfect: good grades, great friends, and work he loves. There's just one thing missing: his mom. But a disastrous first meeting with his birth mom leaves Aiden stunned and ready to go back to his ordinary life in Alaska. 

A confusion on the runaway prevents the plane from landing, but when the plane hits a bad patch of turbulence, throwing it off-course, the pilots lose control. The plane crashes, leaving Emily, Aiden, and two dozen other passengers stranded on a creepy island. But they aren't the only ones on the island, and it's now a race against time for someone to find them before the island's inhabitants do.

Warped Remains

"There wasn't anything we could do for her," Aiden says softly.


His words do nothing to calm me, though. "That could have been me. She was pulling me in there with her." I look up at him through teary eyes.


He brushes a strand of hair from my face, his hand lingering on my cheek. "She was trying to get out, Emily. Nothing else."


"Hey, what's the hold up? She hurt?" Tom calls back to us.


"She's fine." Aiden's reply is curt and stern. "Do you want to keep going? Or do you want to go back to the beach?"


"No, I want to keep going." If I go back to the beach, I'll have to see Sierra, and I can't face her knowing I hadn't done anything to help her sister.
