A curvy city girl finds unexpected romance with her brother's mountain man best friend when he comes to her rescue in Alaska.

My bucket list is pretty simple: I want to see the Northern Lights. But while I'm in Alaska, I plan to have other breathtaking once-in-a-lifetime experiences. I'll go on a whale watching tour. Maybe I'll see bears or moose. And maybe, just maybe, I'll finally have the courage to make a move on my brother's best friend. I know, I know. He's totally off-limits. But I've had a secret crush on Brecken for as long as I can remember. It's so secret, I've spent most of my life denying it to myself.

But after I fall ill and he nurses me to health before becoming my guide through Alaska's beauty, there's no more pretending. Not to myself and not to him. Especially not when I discover that I'm not the only one who has been harboring secret forbidden feelings.

I may not have put "fall in love with a mountain man" on my bucket list, but that doesn't mean it hasn't been there all along.
