Carrie Slayton writes society news for a big city newspaper but dreams of covering serious stories. Her editor offers her a deal: write about any topic she chooses, but first she must secure an interview with Finn Dalton. The bestselling author wrote a memoir about wilderness survival and now lives somewhere in remote Alaska. He refuses all media requests and keeps his location secret. Carrie researches Finn's background and forms a theory about where he might be hiding. She abandons her family's Christmas celebrations and flies to snowy Alaska to find him. When she finally tracks Finn down, he proves more magnetic and more stubborn than she anticipated. Carrie faces a choice between landing the biggest story of her career and following her growing feelings for the man she came to interview. Set during the Christmas season, the novel explores finding love in unexpected places.
