Dream By The Fire

From New York Times Bestselling Author Laura Scott, previously published under the pseudonym Noelle Fox!

Welcome to North Pole, Alaska, where the Christmas Spirit lives all year long. Lots of kids write letters to Santa. But those delivered to North Pole are answered by a group of dedicated volunteers who call themselves "the Elves."

Spring in North Pole Alaska can be unpredictable, and even though Christmas is eight months away, some children are still writing letters to the Elves. Timmy McElroy asks Santa for a favor. His favorite teacher, Ms. Lucy, needs to be cheered up because there's a mean man who makes her cry. Elementary school teacher Lucy Harper heads out to North Pole, desperate to leave her old life and her control-freak ex-husband behind. But she doesn't plan on the combination of a blizzard and a bear sending her car into the ditch. Thankfully, Sheriff Deacon Stone rescues her, giving Lucy a chance to ride a snow machine, the first of many new Alaskan experiences.

Dealing with North Pole's recent problem with pranksters was bad enough. Deacon doesn't need the added hassle of Lucy, no matter how attractive he finds her. Yet they end up working together when someone lets Rudy's reindeer loose to wander around town. A relationship is the last thing Deacon wants, yet the more time he spends with Lucy, the more intrigued he becomes. Her positive attitude reminds him of how jaded he is. And when Lucy's ex-husband manages to find her in North Pole, despite Timmy's efforts to keep Lucy's location a secret, Deacon is willing to risk his life and his heart to protect her.
