Can a weekend in the wilds of Alaska clear the air between these competitive colleagues and remind them of all they’ve been missing? When the opportunity for a high-profile promotion comes up, hardworking sales rep Kendra Phillips figures she’s a shoo-in…only to be disappointed to be beaten out by her new coworker, Nolan Lawless. Kendra wouldn’t be so upset if he was just another colleague, but she and Nolan have history. The two shared a steamy week together at a sales conference months ago, and Kendra came away feeling that their connection was real. At least, until Nolan ghosted her as soon as the conference was over. Kendra just wants to move on and focus on her job, but a forced work retreat makes avoiding Nolan impossible. Roughing it in the Alaskan wilderness isn’t exactly Kendra’s idea of a good time, and when Nolan is assigned as her partner for the trip, she’ll have to channel her pain into competitive energy to prove she’s over him…even when sleeping next to him in their tiny shelter tells her heart she’s not.

This Valentine’s Day, her perfect match might be the one man who’s off-limits… Maddie Frazier may be single for Valentine’s Day, but she has no intention of staying that way. She’s hoping the man of her dreams awaits at Wild River’s Blind Date Ice Fishing weekend. But her chances of romance are upended when her preassigned match cancels at the last minute and she’s paired with their wilderness guide instead. Which wouldn’t be so bad if he wasn’t also Mike Toledo, her sister’s ruggedly sexy ex. Love is most definitely in the air as the other couples cozy up in their secluded fishing huts, but for Maddie and Mike, complicated doesn’t begin to describe it—especially when the close proximity highlights only how kinda-sorta-perfect they are for each other. Surely Maddie’s not falling for her sister’s ex…right? But with more than just fishing breaking the ice between them, undeniable sparks start flying fast and furious. How can Maddie remain loyal to her sister without giving up her shot at the once-in-a-lifetime match she’s been seeking? Look for Jennifer’s newest book, Stars Over Alaska!

A NATIONAL BESTSELLER "A fiery tour de force... I could not put this book down. It truly was terrifying and unutterably beautiful." -Alison Borden, The Denver Post From the best-selling author of The Dog Stars, the story of two college students on a wilderness canoe trip--a gripping tale of a friendship tested by fire, white water, and violence Wynn and Jack have been best friends since freshman orientation, bonded by their shared love of mountains, books, and fishing. Wynn is a gentle giant, a Vermont kid never happier than when his feet are in the water. Jack is more rugged, raised on a ranch in Colorado where sleeping under the stars and cooking on a fire came as naturally to him as breathing. When they decide to canoe the Maskwa River in northern Canada, they anticipate long days of leisurely paddling and picking blueberries, and nights of stargazing and reading paperback Westerns. But a wildfire making its way across the forest adds unexpected urgency to the journey. When they hear a man and woman arguing on the fog-shrouded riverbank and decide to warn them about the fire, their search for the pair turns up nothing and no one. But: The next day a man appears on the river, paddling alone. Is this the man they heard? And, if he is, where is the woman? From this charged beginning, master storyteller Peter Heller unspools a headlong, heart-pounding story of desperate wilderness survival.

But just as the cast and crew arrive on location in Wild River, Alaska, the leading man drops out of the production.

Gus doesn’t want to be anywhere near the film crew shooting at his family’s campgrounds, but Selena makes him an offer he can’t refuse: she’ll snag Gus an interview with Sports Beat if he’ll be her leading man.

"Jennifer Snow is one clever writer."—RT Book Reviews The Alaskan wilderness may be the best place to protect her client, but also where it’s impossible to protect her heart. Needing a safe place to hide her latest client, agent Leslie Sanders returns to her hometown of Wild River to wait out the search for the young Hollywood star’s stalker. Just being back in Alaska is stirring up emotions she’d buried, and as much as Leslie believed she was moving on with her life in LA, she’s still not over the death of her fiancé. The sun, sand and surf made it easy to forget cold Alaskan nights snuggled by the fire, planning a future with Dawson…but seeing Levi Grayson just makes everything that much harder. Levi Grayson has been one of Alaska’s elite group of wildland firefighters for almost ten years, but nothing about his job rattles him as much as seeing Leslie again. When Leslie left Wild River after Dawson’s death, it had hurt to lose his two best friends in a matter of weeks. Resisting his feelings for her when Dawson was alive was tough, but he’s not sure he’s strong enough anymore to fight the attraction between them, or to let this last chance at love slip away like smoke through his fingers.
