Summary
After enduring more than her fair share of heartache, Lydia Stewart had hoped fate’s cruelty was done with her. The rural outdoorswoman’s life had been rooted in the sub-arctic forests of Alaska and the traditions that had been left to her by the generations before her. However, the loss of her grandmother made it impossible for her to find solace in the familiar land of her ancestors, and unable to find refuge at home, the raven haired woman sought to mend her grieving heart in unfamiliar lands.
Lydia’s work as a wildland firefighter found her traveling from Alaska to Georgia, where amidst the heat and chaos of flames she briefly crossed paths with a man whose stormy eyes and brooding demeanor left a fleeting mark on her. Weeks of digging, chopping, and carrying the southern land on her back fortified the northerner, and she emerged from the forest to find a world unravelling.
Fate twisted once more and enter Daryl Duane Dixon, broodier than ever and sporting a self-induced arrow wound. Together, they had no choice but to navigate the ruins of a world that they no longer recognized, bound by fate and fortified by the unexpected strength that they found in each other. -

Summary
There is little else Dolly Kuznetsoff treasures more than quiet mornings set against the backdrop of her recently reclaimed ancestral land in the wilds of Alaska. Fifty river miles away from her home village, she finally finds peace as the solitude of her newly built fishcamp soothes the unleashed wild that lives within her.
She’s left with more questions than answers when she meets a shrewd man with a distinctly made-up name and an appetite for her food stores. Rather than leave him to freeze and starve in his shabby tent she offers him a place at her hearth and a ride to the nearest village before winter comes, unaware that he needs neither.
The fisherwoman’s life is anything but quiet, as she discovers what it means to be muggle, and a maledictus. Two words that hadn’t existed in her world before the dark stranger walked out of the forest and into her life.
