She swore off men to achieve her goal until he walked back into her life.

 

Just as Maren Patterson is about to achieve her dream of competing in the Iditarod, she loses her championship team and takes on a cast-off string of dogs. Broke and homeless, she has fourteen huskies to feed and no place to keep them.

 

After his friend’s tragic death, Seth Nelson retires from the Coast Guard and returns to Lake Superior’s North Shore to forge a new life and restore his late grandfather’s house. The last thing he expects is to find his childhood sweetheart and her pack of dogs dwelling on his property.

 

Maren and her rambunctious huskies put a crimp in his plans, but there’s something about them that might be exactly what he needs. Can he overcome his survivor’s guilt and convince Maren that they belong together?

 

Can Maren resist her undeniable attraction to the man who still possesses a piece of her heart? Maybe, just maybe, the key to achieving one dream lies with the acceptance of another she hadn’t realized she still cherished.
