Bold Fortune

Quinn Fortune heads the community trust in Lost Lake, Alaska, which makes him the official guardian of its unspoiled wilderness. A rugged frontiersman, he has little patience for softness. Then a professor in pink turns up in town, hoping to win his approval for a cheerful outsider's proposal about land that does not belong to her. He is intrigued despite himself, and he agrees to consider her idea on one condition: she must get through a month of traditional Alaska living. He expects her to retreat to the Lower 48 within a week.

Violet Parrish is more thinker than doer, but she decides this calls for drastic action. That means living off the grid in the Alaskan wilderness in January, with a mountain man for company. She is sure her determination can handle the frozen tundra, yet the sheer scale of the Last Frontier catches her off guard. So does her attraction to the gruff, strikingly handsome Quinn, and the warmth that grows between them through the freezing nights.

This is a contemporary romance about opposites, set in the Alaskan winter. It launches a new series by Megan Crane.
