Going Off Grid

Clay and Elliott are working toward a dream—working sixty-hour weeks for one of the oil companies that recently sprung up in North Dakota. The pay is good, but is it a fair trade for never seeing each other? The point becomes moot when the company folds, like so many others, and the couple is left with a difficult choice. Should they find comparable work somewhere else, or is it time to throw caution to the wind and go after their goal—years earlier than they intended? What they've always wanted is to be together and have time to enjoy it, so they follow their hearts. They're going off the grid and fixing up an old cabin so they can be self-sufficient. But when they go from all the conveniences of the modern world to outhouses, solar power, a shoestring budget, and more mosquitos than they ever thought possible, will they find there's such a thing as too much time together?
