Lauren Dalton’s world shattered the day her father died. It shattered again when she found a box of old keepsakes commemorating a life she’d never even known he led.
Heartbroken but determined, she accepts a seasonal job in rural Alaska to look after an injured musher’s dogs while searching for the truth about her father’s hidden past. But her cantankerous new boss comes with dangerous secrets of his own.
When a fire ravages part of the property, all will be revealed—and four-thousand miles away from the only home she’s ever known, Lauren will discover just how quickly everything can change.
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Melissa Storm is happiest with a book in her hands and a pet on her lap.

This shy, indoorsy authoress lives in the heart of Alaska with her husband, their kiddo, and a lively domestic zoo brimming with spoiled cats and dogs. Melissa dreams of one day raising bees in her backyard, but has promised her kiddo that she will resist this particular temptation. For now.
