Wild River, Alaska – Present Day

Actress Selena Hudson is in Wild River to star in and produce a movie that she feels will put her career on the right path. A year ago, she was nearly killed by a stalker and is hoping her personal life is once again heading in the right direction. But upon her arrival in Wild River, Selena learns that her leading man—and live-in boyfriend—has ditched her in favor of a better offer. Now she needs a new man to play the hero in the movie. Due to budget and time constraints, Selena and her director decide to check locally. It appears the only viable candidate is the man who greeted her arrival to Wild River not too kindly.

Former sports anchor Gus Orosco is without a job and facing social media ridicule after he had a meltdown on-air one day. He grew up in Wild River and is currently staying at the family campground in a cabin. When Selena shows up unexpectedly—his sister neglected to tell him that she’d rented the land for filming the movie—he greets her by telling her to get off his property. After his sister explains and apologizes, Guy has to reluctantly put up with the movie. But then he’s approached about being the male lead. Guy should refuse, except Selena offers him a connection to his dream sports reporting job.

Selena and Gus are as different as night and day, but they click romantically in ALASKA DREAMS, the latest tale in the Wild River series. He was looking for peace and quiet after his public meltdown on live television and his subsequent firing by his own father. Of course, there is also the fact that his outburst happened after his fiancée broke things off between them. She found someone better. Gus is now ready to move on—after he spends a few weeks in the wilds of Alaska. But Selena and her film crew burst into his quiet time, and things will never be the same. She’s obstinate, pushy, and beautiful. The zing of attraction that Gus feels for Selena shouldn’t be there, especially since she has a boyfriend back home in Los Angeles. But things soon change.

Selena isn’t sure why she’s attracted to Gus. Her boyfriend, Matt, should be perfect for her, but after he bails out on her and leaves the film crew without a leading man, one thing leads to another, and Matt is soon her ex. Gus and Selena like to challenge the other, which adds to their mutual attraction. Neither came to Alaska looking for love, but Cupid knows how to slingshot that bow and arrow. Will Gus and Selena each get what they want? Can they even think about pursuing a romance once they’re back on the mainland?

A sexy and intriguingly fun read, ALASKA DREAMS takes readers to the heart of Alaska. Will the movie turn out to be a success for both? Can Selena and Gus find happiness together? Find out by picking up a copy of ALASKA DREAMS.
