Alaskan Holiday: A Novel

Alaskan Holiday: A Novel

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERÂ â€¢Â Debbie Macomber brings us to the Alaskan wilderness for a magical Christmas tale about finding love where itâ€™s least expected.

â€œPicture-perfect . . . this charmer will please Macomber fans and newcomers alike.â€â€”Publishers Weekly

Before beginning her dream job as sous chef in one of Seattleâ€™s hottest new restaurants, Josie Avery takes a summer position cooking at a lakeside lodge in the remote Alaskan town of Ponder. Josie falls for the rustic charms of the local communityâ€”including Jack Corcoran, the crotchety keeper of Ponderâ€™s famed sourdough starter, and, in particular, the quiet and intense Palmer Saxon, a famed master swordsmith.

Josie and Palmer become close during the long Alaskan summer days, but Josie knows that, come fall, sheâ€™ll be returning to reality and the career sheâ€™s worked so hard for. Palmer, on the other hand, would like nothing better than to make Josie his wife and to keep her in Ponder. But Josie canâ€™t imagine abandoning her mother back in the Emerald City and sacrificing her career to stay in this isolated townâ€”not even for a man sheâ€™s quickly coming to love.

Fate has other plans. Josie misses the last boat out of town before winter sets in, stranding her in Ponder and putting her dream job at risk. As the holidays approach, Josie and Palmer must grapple with the complications that arise when dreams confront reality, and the Christmas magic that can happen when they put their faith in love.

Debbie Macomber is at her best in this beautiful holiday story about the far journeys we travel to find a place to call home.
