Pursuit of the Pudú - Diana Delacruz - Bog

Even as Melissa and Nicolás fall in love, everything else in their lives falls apart.

In this Christian YA adventure and sequel to Destiny at Dolphin Bay, recent high school grad Melissa Travis returns to southern Chile's enchanting Chiloé on a mission. Her youth group plans to build a church on the island of Chauquelín, and chasing a romantic relationship is not part of the agenda. But as soon as Melissa encounters her old friend, Nicolás Serrano, the earlier sparks between them burst into a blaze.

While the construction project races ahead, myriad obstacles conspire to drive a wedge between Melissa and Nicolás. Their future career choices appear to lead in opposite directions. Family worries gnaw at Nicolás as his brother opposes their mother's upcoming wedding. Melissa's ex-boyfriend and Delicia, her old nemesis, form an unlikely alliance to plot against her and Nicolás.

Then in a fit of fury, Delicia blurts out a stunning claim that unleashes on Melissa and Nicolás a chain reaction of suspicion and accusations. How can their new love thrive or even survive the fallout? Still more unsettling, have they strayed out of sync with God's timing?
