He traveled 3,800 miles to be alone
...but is it what he really wants?
Relocating to Alaska after a family tragedy seemed an ideal way for author R.D. âMacâ Macleod to grieve in peace. But solitude feels overrated when Macâs around B&B owner Ursula Anderson and her orphaned goddaughter, Rory, whoâs already bonding with his dog. Worse, heâs imagining a future with Ursula and Rory. Is it time to finally forgive himself?
BETH CARPENTER is thankful for good books, a good dog, a good man and a dream job creating happily-ever-afters. She and her husband now split their time between Alaska and Arizona, where she occasionally encounters a moose in the yard or a scorpion in the basement. She prefers the moose.

SNOW CRUNCHED UNDER Ursulaâs ski poles as she pushed up the rise and stopped at the top of the hill to catch her breath. Sheâd earned an Anchorski second-place medal in the over-fifty age group a few winters ago, but that didnât mean she could keep up with her eight-year-old goddaughter. From somewhere nearby, a raven cackled as though amused at these earthbound creatures with boards strapped
