and the cure for a perennial bachelor?
Raised by her healer grandfather, former army medic Ally Mowak knows her alternative approach to traditional medicine puts her at odds with most of her Alaskan town. That includes Tag James, the rugged transport pilot with the sprawling family and political ambitions. Ally couldn’t be more wrong for the aspiring senator. Then why does everything feel so right when they’re together?

So did he. Then he sighed because what
he wanted to do was pull her close and wrap his arms around her.
“Look, Ally, I’m the one who is let
down. I like you, obviously. I’ve already told you that. And I’m beyond
flattered that you would even entertain the thought of being interested in me.”
She stepped toward him, right into his
comfort zone, and his pulse took off like a helicopter rotor at full speed.
“How could any woman not be interested
in you?” Her voice was all soft, like she was about to tell him a secret, and
his blood went hot as he remembered what happened last time she’d gotten this
close. He stared at her full, beyond-tempting lips, now curling up at the
corners, and told himself he should take a step back. This perfectly rational
message sent from his brain was refused delivery by the rest of his body.
Wrenching his gaze upward, he found her brown eyes full of teasing humor.
“I know for a fact that they all are,
Mr. Most Eligible Bachelor. And you can count me right there among them.”
He made a growling sound, part desire,
part frustration. “You shouldn’t be. I am too old for you and...” The rest of
his words were lost, lodged in his throat like dry oatmeal, because she’d
brought her hands up to touch his chest. They were toe to toe, and with her
palms flat she slid her hands slowly up while he watched, fascinated, until
they disappeared from his line of sight to wind around his neck.
Because she was so much shorter, she
had to stretch to accomplish the task, and the move left only a fraction of
space between them. One deep breath and she’d be flush against him... With a
gentle pull, she urged his head to bow toward hers. She must have risen onto
her toes at the same time because that last bit of space between them
disappeared and their lips made contact.
Closing his eyes, he kissed her back,
but only lightly, allowing himself this final goodbye. See, he could do this.
One soft, sweet, goodbye kiss...
Then she made a little noise and went
all boneless against him, her fingers biting into his shoulders. His arms
tightened around her. Sliding the fingers of one hand up to the back of her
neck, he curved the other around her hip and kissed her with everything he had.
Like it was the last time.
Because it was, he realized when she
whispered his name. He had to stop this. He pulled away slightly. Her fingers
bunched the fabric of his shirt and she laid her cheek against his chest. Tag
rested his chin on the top of her head while he waited for his breathing to
slow.
A long moment passed before she let
out a soft chuckle and said, “Too tall, maybe. But definitely not too old.”
