Thanks for playing everyone! Happy reading! 

An Alaskan Proposal is the fourth book in the Northern Lights series. In this story, Sabrina Bell has lost her job when the upscale department store chain where she worked as a buyer went bankrupt. Eventually, she finds a position as a management trainee for a chain of outdoor outfitters, and her first assignment is in the Anchorage store.

Trouble is, in order to get the job, she might have exaggerated her outdoor experience a tad, and the new company is known for their passion for camping, fishing, and hiking. After an explosive mistake at the company teambuilder, Sabrina decides she needs to learn basic outdoor skills, and fast. She proposes a bargain with survival instructor Leith Jordan. He’ll teach her to be “outdoorsy” and she’ll help him out with a family situation.

In this story, Leith’s well-mannered German Shepherd develops a huge crush on Sabrina’s troublesome little terrier. I was so happy the dogs made the cover, because I love to include dogs in my stories. In fact, dogs are major characters in all the Northern Lights stories so far. Just for fun, I thought I’d see if you can match the dog with the story.

HINT—An Alaskan Proposal has two dogs, and one of the dogs below spans two books.

Post your answer below in the comments, and I’ll randomly select one commenter to receive a signed copy of one Northern Lights book—winner’s choice. Please check back on this post on Monday when I’ll announce the winner.

1)      The Alaskan Catch                            A) Talkeetna                      
2)      A Gift for Santa                                 B) Kimmik                                                           
3)      Alaskan Hideaway                            C) Blossom
4)      An Alaskan Proposal                        D) Boomer



Can he teach her survival skills—

without endangering his heart? 

When Sabrina Bell taps Leith Jordan for a crash course in conquering the great Alaskan outdoors, he figures he’s on safe ground. They’re polar opposites and his spectacular home state’s just a pit stop for the hotshot fashionista. So no one’s more surprised than Leith when he starts falling for her. Now he’s a man with a plan: get Sabrina to fall in love with Alaska…and, hopefully, with him.

  1. Ditto what Liz said. I love learning so much about Alaska. I remember when Debbie Macomber wrote the dozen Alaskan bachelor stories---how much I learned about the state. Keep the books coming.

    1. Thanks, Janice! I was so excited when they included the dogs! No, there's at least one more coming out in July, and I'm working on the proposal for another one that starts out with them stranded together in a remote cabin.
