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.
“Like
I said, we don’t really teach basic woodcraft. Maybe you could register for a
course from the University of Alaska, Anchorage, this fall.”
“Fall is too late. My
assignment here ends September first, when the store managers send in their
evaluations. Only the top half move on to the next level of training.
Besides...” She paused, taking a sudden interest in the worn vinyl floor.
“Besides, what?”
She took a breath and
looked up. “After putting down deposits on my apartment and utilities, I’m a
little short on cash right now. I thought maybe we could work out some sort of
barter arrangement?”
This should be good.
What possible skills could she have that he would find useful? It wasn’t as
though he needed his hair braided. “What did you have in mind?”
“I don’t know. What
do you need done? I’m pretty good at interior house painting.”
His kitchen could use
a coat of paint, but that would mean having her in his house and that sounded
like a bad idea. Besides, considering her perfectly groomed appearance, he had
trouble picturing her doing manual labor. He suspected her biggest talent was
looking good. Which, now that he thought about it, might just solve his
problem.
“Suppose I offered to
spend a day teaching you to be ‘outdoorsy.’ Would you be willing to accompany
me to a wedding Saturday after next?”
She took a half step
backward, like she was afraid she might be walking into a trap. “You’re asking
me on a date?”
“Nope. Strictly a
business arrangement. For all appearances, we would be on a date, but actually I
just need a plus-one for the wedding to keep my sister off my back. One and
done.”
“Why would your
sister care whether you had a date for a wedding?”
“It’s a long, boring
story. The point is, I need a fake date. Are you game?”
