Three bachelors turned...matchmakers?
One special night with Cooper Hamilton gave Nora Perry a precious gift. But no way is the sweet-talking salesman the right guy for her...or is he?
Former pro athlete Ty Porter could get burned when he falls for the beautiful reporter who ruined his career—and could now expose his most zealously guarded secret!
Gideon Walker has a long history with free-spirited flower shop owner Sophie Jennings. But when the banker-matchmaker fixes her up with potential candidates, he realizes he’s made a terrible mistake...
MELINDA CURTIS is an award-winning, USA TODAY bestselling author who lives in drought-stricken California with her husband, where they hope El Niño comes to visit...soon. Their three kids are away in college, but their neighbors are empty nesters, too, the house is clean and the fridge unraided, so it’s kind of fun. Melinda enjoys putting humor into her stories because that’s how she approaches life. She writes sweet contemporaries as Melinda Curtis (Brenda Novak says of Season of Change, “Found a place on my keeper shelf”), and fun, traditional romances as Mel Curtis (Jayne Ann Krentz says of Cora Rules, “Wonderfully entertaining”).
CARI LYNN WEBB believes in life lessons. Her three older brothers taught her how not to act like a clingy, high-maintenance girl (their words). Her mother taught her how to laugh at herself and life. Her father taught her to follow her dreams and always be kind. Cari lives those lessons today. Her husband keeps her laughing, even when life is stressful. She’s turned her dream of writing romance novels about strong heroines and the heroes who love them into reality. And she’s grateful every day for all of her family’s lessons that she now gets to pass along to her unsuspecting daughters.
ANNA J. STEWART wrote her first romance (starring a certain hunky rock star) back in high school, and the rest, as they say, is history. A longtime fangirl and geek, this native Californian spends her downtime attending sci-fi fan conventions, avoiding crazy new apps for her phone and dealing with a serious Supernatural, Star Trek and Sherlock addiction. While her independent heroines don’t need a man, when they find the one they want, that’s when the fun begins. Anna is a USA TODAY bestselling author.

I consider myself lucky to have two great friends in Anna J. Stewart and Cari Lynn Webb. Thanks for making Kenkamken Bay fun. And to my family—especially Mr. Curtis—thanks for always believing.
Welcome to Kenkamken Bay, Alaska!
In K-Bay most men don’t shave but once a year. And when they do shave? It might be because a spring trip to Anchorage is in the making. Most men in K-Bay aren’t really pining for women. They like the isolation. So when Cooper Hamilton and his friends make a bet that they can successfully match six couples, no one really thinks they’ll succeed.
But Coop has more than matchmaking on his mind. Last spring when the snow thawed, Coop made the drive to Alaska and met Nora Perry. Nora thought she might have met “the one.” And Coop? He wasn’t thinking along those lines. Now Nora has tracked Coop down before the most romantic holiday of the year—Valentine’s Day! Too bad romance is not on Nora’s to-do list.
I hope you enjoy Coop and Nora’s journey. I love to hear from readers. Check my website to learn more about upcoming books, sign up for email book announcements and I’ll send you a free sweet romantic comedy read, or chat with me on Facebook (MelindaCurtisAuthor) or Twitter (MelCurtisAuthor) to hear about my latest giveaways.

“A GOOD CAR is like a good life,” Cooper Hamilton said to his friends over a beer on Friday night in Kenkamken Bay, Alaska’s, Bar & Grill. “Make it affordable, make it practical, make it easy to trade in. And you’re all set.”
“A good car starts up and goes no matter how bad the storm,” Gideon Walker added, tightening the knot on his don’t-leave-home-without-it blue tie. “Nothing keeps a good car stuck in your driveway.”
Ty Porter scratched his full, dark beard—the one that gave half the men in town beard envy—and channeled his inner cynic. “Unless it runs out of gas.”
Coach, the bar’s owner and bartender, rolled his eyes. And Coop couldn’t blame him.
In their high school years, Coop, Gideon and Ty had strutted around town looking down their noses at K-Bay because they were destined to leave for better things in the Lower 48. Now they’d become a sad cliché. A fixture at the K-Bay Bar & Grill. Always taking up the three seats at the elbow of the bar near the kitchen.
