But when her company is chosen to launch a new creative program on the Maine coast—twenty years after the crash that took her father’s life and nearly her own—she drags her feet. The town still whispers about that night: the lost World War II heirloom her father died chasing, the secrets that fractured her family. After years of helping others heal, Kateri must finally confront her own story.

Detective Aaron Brogan has returned home, too, on forced leave, restless and unsure of his future. He doesn’t expect to run into Kateri—the girl whose tragedy once brushed against his own.

As long-buried clues surface, Kateri and Aaron discover something deeper than the mystery connecting them: new feelings from an old connection.

Reggie Price runs on precision because it keeps Yukon Valley Hospital’s lab humming and his sled dog team on track for the North Pole 500. With the Iditarod qualifier three weeks away, he can’t afford distractions.

Then his lead dog limps into Katz Veterinary Clinic—and bolts straight into Dr. April Katz.

April is all twinkle lights and holiday cheer this Christmas. She’s also juggling a father who thinks responsibility is a love language, a career decision she keeps punting, and the inconvenient fact that Reggie still pushes her buttons.

The town’s matchmaking network declares them a holiday project. A community festival throws them together. And a whiteout strands April at Reggie’s cabin—with a sputtering generator, a crackling fire, and one too-tempting bed.

Then race day comes, and with his dogs’ health and a promise to his brother on the line, Reggie and April must risk the thing they both cling to most: control.
