When a scheming best friend enters Charlie into a reality TV competition, she finds herself stranded in the wilderness with Zander Rune—a washed-up Hollywood heartthrob she absolutely can't stand. With no crew, no rescue team, and nothing but each other to rely on, these two unlikely survival partners have to drop their walls and learn to trust one another to make it out alive. As they navigate the raw beauty of the wild, Charlie and Zander discover that the versions of themselves they've been clinging to might not be who they really are at all. It's a stunning journey about second chances, vulnerability, and finding connection in the most unexpected places.
