Seducing the Hermit — Suz deMello

Deejay Valerie Percy rejects the phony life she's led in L.A. and travels to remote Takinsha Island, Alaska, determined to start over. She's looking for a fuck buddy, an accessory she considers more important than mascara. She wants a warm, outgoing man to laugh with her, hang out with her and shag her silly. She doesn't think she'll encounter any difficulty in Alaska, where the odds of men to women are twenty to one. But as the locals say, the odds are good, but the goods are…odd.

Valerie falls for Fisher Chugatt, a loner who doesn't do relationships. But Cupid has other plans for this couple, and so does Valerie. She doesn't waste any time seducing Fisher. Sex in the shower, hummers on the couch and a spectacular encounter beneath the northern lights seal the deal in Valerie's mind. Having fallen in love, she wants it all -- home, husband, babies. But shadows from his past may prevent Fisher from committing to anyone…Valerie included.
