What she’s always wanted:

Love. A family. Him.

Pediatric surgeon Rory Anderson is dreading returning to her small Alaskan hometown and seeing her ex, local doctor Jacob Hunter! After everything they lost, discovering he’s a single dad brings back so many painful memories. Only when it becomes clear their chemistry’s as powerful as ever, Rory dares to hope Jacob and his son could be the family she’s always longed for…

A powerful reunion story that more than pulls at your heartstrings! They were best friends, then college sweethearts and thought they were going to go the distance, until it all fell apart. Back in the same town again for the first time in 9 years brings up a lot of feelings. Hurt, despair, and most of all the powerful love they shared. A riveting, emotional happily-ever-after!

Loss of her dreams accompanied by a guilt she couldn’t outrun forced Aurora Anderson to abandon the life she once lived and start anew in Los Angeles. Close to a decade later, she’s reluctantly returning to her small hometown in Alaska when her Mom needs her. She can only hope she can get in and out of town quickly before the past comes back to haunt her!

Doctor Jacob Hunter thought he and Rory had their future mapped out all those years ago, but heartache led to her walking away from it all without even a glance over her shoulder. It doesn’t take long for old attraction to flare when they cross paths with each other, but how could he ever trust in anything she says again after she left him behind?

But with their ever-smoldering attraction bursting into flames, can Izzy risk surrendering to the temptation that awaits her between Andrea’s sheets?

A marriage of convenience just might turn into forever! They seem unlikely, but Izzy and Andrea actually fit each other well once they get to know the hidden aspects of each other. Their story was intriguing and satisfyingly real. Enjoyed it!
