Where life’s currents take you…
Dana Raynott just traveled 3,600 miles to reunite with the brother who changed his name and fled to Alaska nineteen years ago. It’s impossible not to be moved by this wild, breathtaking state, even if Dana’s no closer to finding the answers she came here for.
Her brother’s best friend, Anchorage engineer Sam MacKettrick, might be able to help her. He’s strong and kind—a six-foot, irresistible blend of diverse cultures. He’s also haunted by a tragic family history with a startling connection to Dana’s past...
Sam met her eyes. “I’ve never brought anyone here before.”
Dana reached for his hand. “I’m honored.”
He held her gaze for a long moment before he stepped closer and slowly lowered his head. Her lips parted in a tiny gasp just before he pressed his mouth against hers. She closed her eyes and let her entire focus shift to the sensation of their lips meeting. His hands settled on her waist; her arms reached up around his neck. She pushed her fingers into his thick hair and pulled him closer. He responded, tilting his head and deepening the kiss.
He didn’t rush, simply kissed her as though it was the one and only purpose of his life. Dana had dated a few other men, and yet somehow she’d never truly been kissed.
Not like this.
Welcome to Anchorage. I’m thrilled to be able to share my hometown with you in my very first Harlequin, The Alaskan Catch. It’s the first story in my Northern Lights series, all about life and love in Alaska.
Anchorage is the kind of city where you can dine on grilled king salmon with béarnaise sauce prepared by a master chef or catch your own salmon in one of the creeks that run through the city—maybe on the same day. This mix of wild and refined is one of the reasons people fall in love with the place. A story I’ve heard over and over is “I came to Alaska for a summer and I never left.” They found home.
I wanted to capture that feeling in this story. Dana, the heroine, has been the glue holding her family together, especially since her brother’s unexplained departure nineteen years ago. After her father’s death, she heads to Alaska to find her brother and get some answers.
But pinning her brother down is more complicated than she anticipated. While she’s waiting, his roommate, Sam, shows up and takes charge. When Sam shares his favorite wild Alaskan places with her, Dana discovers an adventurous streak she never knew she had. And with Sam, she feels confident enough to let it out, knowing she’ll treasure these memories once she returns home. Only her heart isn’t sure where home is anymore.
If you enjoy The Alaskan Catch, keep an eye out for the next Northern Lights novel, coming this Christmas.
Happy reading!
