Publisher's Synopsis
Rewritten to retain the spirit of the series.
Lila is facing a tough decision. She loves her grandparents and doesn't want to leave them, but she also wants to support herself and find a job. Her older brother is unable to take care of their grandparents, so she must find a way to support herself. Eastern Alaska doesn't have many job opportunities, so she takes what is available.
On her first day of work, she meets Dick, and they both feel an instant connection. However, there are obstacles in their way. Dick is from California and has never experienced Alaska's harsh winters. Lila's family is Native, and it's unclear if Dick will fit in with them.
Despite the challenges, Dick is determined to make Alaska his new home and find work. If Lila is available, he wants to be with her. Lila is torn between her love for her family and her growing feelings for Dick.
Ultimately, Lila will have to decide. So much rides on how Dick will adjust to the land she loves. Leaving her grandparents isn't an option. Can he come to love the land as she does? Can they build a life in the Copper River Basin? Does she trust him enough to believe Dick when he says he will stay?
Sweet and clean with some strong language. HEA. Multicultural and interracial.
