Fast into the night : a woman, her dogs, and their journey north on the Iditarod Trail / by Moderow, Debbie Clarke,author.(CARDINAL)814147;
t age forty-seven, a mother of two, Debbie Moderow was not your average musher in the Iditarod, but that's where she found herself when, less than 200 miles from the finish line, her dogs decided they didn't want to run anymore. After all her preparation, after all the careful management of her team, and after their running so well for over a week, the huskies balked. But the sting of not completing the race after coming so far was nothing compared to the disappointment Moderow felt in having lost touch with her dogs. "Fast into the Night" is the gripping story of Moderow's journeys along the Iditarod trail with her team of spunky huskies: Taiga and Su, Piney and Creek, Nacho and Zeppy, Juliet and the headstrong leader, Kanga. The first failed attempt crushed Moderow's confidence, but after reconnecting with her dogs she returned and ventured again to Nome, pushing through injuries, hallucinations, epic storms, flipped sleds, and clashing personalities, both human and canine. And she prevailed. Part adventure, part love story, part inquiry into the mystery of the connection between humans and dogs, Fast into the Night is an exquisitely written memoir of a woman, her dogs, and what can happen when someone puts herself in that place between daring and doubt-and soldiers on.

Pilot Dodge Kingston has always been the heir to Sky King Ranch. But after a terrible family fight, he left to become a pararescue jumper. A decade later, he's headed home to the destiny that awaits him. That's not all that's waiting for Dodge. His childhood best friend and former flame, Echo Yazzie, is a true Alaskan--a homesteader, dogsledder, and research guide for the DNR. Most of all, she's living a life Dodge knows could get her killed. One of these days she's going to get lost in the woods again, and his worst fear is that he won't be there to find her. When one of Echo's fellow researchers goes missing, Echo sets out to find her, despite a blizzard, a rogue grizzly haunting the woods, and the biting cold. Plus, there's more than just the regular dangers of the Alaskan forests stalking her . . . Will Dodge be able to find her in time? And if he does, is there still room for him in her heart?

On thin ice / by Adair, Cherry,1951-author.(CARDINAL)422252;
Veterinarian Lily Munroe, believed she married an honest, dependable man, but discovered she was painfully mistaken. On her honeymoon, she watched as her once-loving husband became a secretive stranger-mixing with shady people and making dangerous deals. Although Lily nursed him through a sudden terminal illness, her marriage was over long before he passed away. During that difficult time, only her passion for the exhilarating Iditarod race across Alaska gave her something to look forward to, and she channeled her emotions into training dogs for the grueling event. Six years have passed since rancher Derek Wright fell in love with Lily. He's bided his time and bitten his tongue, doing nothing to undermine her marriage. Even when he knew exactly what Lily's husband was up to. Derek isn't letting another minute go by without courting Lily-he's a man who doesn't waste second chances. Derek Wright is a man Lily dubs Mr. Wrong. Extremely sexy and devilishly charming, Derek is the consummate playboy. Or is he? Although Lily can't deny her intense attraction, she believes he is dangerous to her scarred heart. Little does she know that Derek is an elite anti-terrorism agent. But now there's even more to worry about than the harsh elements. The frozen wilds of Alaska are perilous, the ice and snow as beautiful as they are deadly. Lily meets with a series of suspicious accidents, and, whether she likes it or not, Derek is determined to keep her safe. The stubborn woman tries everything she can to shake him and take the lead until it becomes obvious that the "mishaps" plaguing her along the trail are something far more sinister. Will Lily survive the race and Derek's proclamation of love?
