      “About that kiss…”

      Jodie began. “I thought you were your brother, so I thought a kiss would be an icebreaker.”

      “You don’t want me to tell my brother, is that it?” Donovan asked.

      “That isn’t ‘it’ at all. I just didn’t want you thinking I went around kissing strange men like that.”

      “I may be frustrated some of the time, but I’m not strange.”

      Irritation tensed her jaw. “You know perfectly well what I meant.”

      His golden-brown eyes laughed at her. “Your secret is safe with me.”

      “Would you stop…it’s not a secret.”

      “You worry too much. It’s no big deal.”

      It’s no big deal. Jodie drew a deep, calming breath into her lungs. It had seemed simple, coming to Alaska. She could give her children a father, build a new life in the place she’d loved as a child.

      Simple.

      Until she’d mistakenly kissed her fiancé’s brother.…

      JULIANNA MORRIS

      has an offbeat sense of humor, which frequently gets her into trouble. She is often accused of being curious about everything…her interests ranging from oceanography and photography to traveling, antiquing, walking on the beach and reading science fiction. Choosing a college major was extremely difficult, but after many changes she earned a bachelor’s degree in environmental science.

      Julianna’s writing is supervised by a cat named Gandalf, who sits on the computer monitor and criticizes each keystroke. Ultimately, she would like a home overlooking the ocean, where she can write to her heart’s content—and Gandalf’s malcontent. She’d like to share that home with her own romantic hero, someone with a warm, sexy smile, lots of patience and an offbeat sense of humor to match her own. Oh, yes…and he has to like cats.

      Chapter One

      “You aren’t going to marry him, not really…Are you, Mom?”

      Jodie pulled two suitcases down from the luggage rack, then looked at her eight-year-old son. “This is just a getting-acquainted trip, Tadd. I told you that.”

      “Puleeze, the guy’s an accountant.” He slouched deeper in his airplane seat. Tadd said accountant the way some people said ax murderer, and Jodie sighed.

      “You were the one who said I should get married again,” she reminded him. “I’m sure you’ll like Mr. Masters if you give him a chance. He’s a friend of your uncle David. They met when David was stationed here in Alaska.”

      “I wanted you to marry someone like Dad,” Tadd mumbled, his face rebellious. “Not an accountant.”

      Jodie’s heart twinged. She did not want to marry someone like her first husband. Air force pilot Mark Richards
