One Arctic Summer
by Dani Haviland
Come visit Alaska!
Romance sparkled with humor and
Brightened with second chances at the northernmost city in America.
Enjoy an Alaska summer with a stranded college graduate student and the young Inupiat medico who helps the spoiled and opinionated young woman grow up.
Sparks (and sutures) change their lives while working on an archaeological dig in the village of Barrow in 1994. Was she the woman of Rocky's dreams - his Red Raven - or just another cheechako, a tenderfoot from the outside world looking for excitement or a news story in his remote Alaskan village?
Did the local 'healer' change snobby intern Alexandra Oppenheimer's philosophy on life in 1994? Twenty-two years later, will the land and people be the same?
And will Rocky have returned to it, too?
The trials, frustrations, and richness of life in Barrow (Utqiagvik), Alaska color this tender multicultural - and multi-generational - romance in a profound and endearing way.
(This story is based on actual experience from the author's visit to Barrow, Alaska in 1994. The characters are fictitious.)

Dani Haviland's Bio
I write books, publish multi-author box sets, grow roses and other plants popular here in Oregon, and am a hardworking volunteer. Oh, and spend as much time as I can with my grandchildren. So much for being retired... I first started writing because the idea of 'What would happen if I fell into a story like Outlander' wouldn't stop haunting me. The only way to quiet that noise was to write. Naked in the Winter Wind was the result. I found out later, I was not alone. Many of my author friends said the same thing: writing was the only way to quiet those noisy Muses! I kept writing The Fairies Saga series. A year or so later, I published my stories with Chill Out! Books. Soon thereafter, some of my friends and I got together. We created a collection of some of our older titles (backlist books) with the same theme, created a fun preface for the title (Unforgettable) and called it a box set by The Authors' Billboard. That series has nearly 30 titles now. When we put together new Christmas stories, we made USA Today Bestsellers' List with our effort: twice! Now six years later, I've published one hundred multi-author box sets with Chill Out! Books. The Fairies Saga series is still growing, I created three other series (sharing a few TFS characters), and wrote a bunch of single, stand-alone stories, too! My non-set titles are available to 'binge-listen to' on Audible Plus as audiobooks here. Yeah, those muses are noisy still.
