Back Cover Blurb:
When a mysterious stranger is your only hope...
The scars of the past have left their mark, both physical and emotional, on former military pilot Seth Erickson.
Off grid in the far reaches of the bitter Alaskan wilderness, he wants only to be left alone with his ghosts.
But he can’t ignore
a woman in need—beautiful, stranded and nearly frozen with fear.
Summer Silva never imagined that the search for her missing sister would leave her abandoned on a wintry
back road, barely escaping with her life from a cold-blooded killer for hire. Now, hiding out in the isolated cabin of the secretive wounded warrior who saved
her, Summer knows she must do what she fears most. Putting her trust in a stranger is all she has left.
All defenses are down
After a fiery first night together, Seth and Summer are bound by a need as powerful as a Bering Sea
superstorm—and vulnerable to enemies just as fierce. For Seth, reawakened by desire, there is no sacrifice
too great, no memory too dark, to keep Summer safe. But murder and treason lurk everywhere and
Summer may not survive Alaska’s ruthless winter.

Short Description:
When her sister runs away with a guy she met on the internet, a warmth-loving Miami architect chases her reckless sibling to Alaska and finds her life in danger from more than
the elements. Only a stranger, a wounded warrior who is also Alaskan tycoon with a quarrelling family
as complicated as her own and no time for a lady in distress—let alone one who walks on her
sleep—can save her from disaster. Together, two strangers from different worlds and opposite
spectrums of the thermometer must unravel the intrigues that threaten their lives to chase after a new
dream, together, in majestic Alaska.
Review
The book starts on a slow note but picks up speed fast.
The story revolves around Summer and Seth. Both strangers to each other and yet drawn together by forces unknown. The bond that keeps them together, their chemistry and hot romance, unravelling family secrets, murder plots, insecurities, the intensifying mystery makes this book a sure shot page turner. The author uses simple and precise language.
The character of Seth is that of a broken wounded soldier and yet very strong, mysterious and protective. He is the perfect gentleman, the stubborn bad boy, Mr powerful right, Hot lover, Romantic, Sensitive, Humorous, brave, strong protective and caring all rolled up into a macho body with good looks and of multi million worth. Exactly the guy of dreams of every girl.
Where as the character of summer is very relatable, she is todays girl. Independent, intelligent, dreamy, sensitive and taking care of herself as well as others.
Though they are so different than each other (chalk and cheese) yet they are same in their values, nature.
The Romance and trust that blossoms between two strangers brought together by situation, faith, destiny. Set against the beautiful backdrop of Alaska the simple language seeps you in the story and makes you day dream. Like a perfect book this one has the all the qualities too, the author keeps you intrigued by the putting in lots of twists, turns, mysteries and angles in the plot and yet the story goes ahead fluidly and everything fits in perfectly in the big fat puzzle.
The two very different families, thrown in together creating havoc in the story and yet its just meant to be for everything to function and be seen in a crystal clear manner. The small lessons you learn along the way just add to the value of the book.
This book is a classic case of perfect ingredients resulting in an interesting read. A complete page turner indeed. Must read especially for the die hard romantics. You will get your dose of Romance, Passion, Drama, Suspense, Mystery all in one.
Perfect Indeed!!
I give it a 4/5.
