Single mom Danalee Jackson owns the Blue Note-an Alaskan bar offering nightly jazz,
and with a cocktail of regulars who have an opinion about everything. Between dealing
with her son's dad, a failing float-plane business and her bar's code violations,
Dana has no time for romance.
Mark Moretti is burned-out after finishing his father's legacy project, the
multimillion-dollar Grove Marketplace in downtown Boise. He's ready for a break from the
family construction business-maybe for good. And a summerlong fishing trip looks like
just the ticket.
When a canceled flight leaves Mark stranded in Ketchikan, he finds himself at the Blue Note.
One look at the exotically beautiful Dana and he decides to stay in town. But her fierce
independence not only could jeopardize Mark's help with renovations-it could also bring their
mutual attraction to a screeching halt.

When a megastore grocery chain threatens to shut down the new boutique baker Chloe Lawson's worked
so hard to establish, she's furious. Her life may not be picture-perfect, but her custom cakes and pastries
are becoming the talk of Boise, and she'd like to keep it that way.
Chloe needs a champion, and handsom, widowed John Moretti turns out to be it. A high-powered lawyer whose two
rebellious teenagers are the only people he doesn't seem able to impress, John is shocked to find himself fighting
for Chloe's little cause, much less falling for her. But once he samples her home-baked charms, he's hooked—and
determined to make her a permanent part of his family.

Architect Francesca Moretti has always been taught to aim high, work hard and finish what you start.
So when it falls to her—the baby of the family and only daughter—to head up the family construction
business and see a high-profile project through to completion, there is no question of bailing out.
Still it won't prove easy. Construction is a guys' game—Franci will have to prove she's just as
comfortable in steel-toed work boots as in peep-toe heels. To make matters worse, the financing company has
sent a glorified babysitter to oversee the project: nitpicking workaholic Kyle Jagger.
The human watchdog is constantly looking over Franci's shoulder...and not always at the blueprints.
And Franci's getting the distinct impression that Kyle is interested in a little more than just the bottom line.
