Tundra Courage: She came to teach in Alaska's life saving program. What she learned saved her. Brenda Bowie Wise

She's always dreamed of Alaska. But she didn't dream of this



Meara is a stubborn, adventurous nurse practitioner who has a purpose driven, lifelong dream to move to Alaska. When the opportunity arises, she leaves behind all she knows in Vermont on her way to The Last Frontier, with a desire to make a difference while teaching in the life-saving Community Health Aide Program (CHAP). She feels ready to serve in Alaska-but is she ready to be changed by Alaska?

Meara has to adapt to her new job, new environment, the Yupik culture, and even a kind, handsome trooper who aims for her attention. Everyone says he's a good man, but she can't help but push him away. Why can't she just let him in? Then, while on a village trip to watch her students demonstrate their skills, she encounters a victim of circumstances that don't make sense. It is up to her to find the truth before it's too late.

Tundra Courage has plenty of romance, plenty of thrills, and characters you think you can trust. She sees a future she can believe in, but there are dangerous secrets hiding behind closed doors. This first novel in the Alaska Hidden Heroes Series is a romantic thriller about leaving your old life behind to enter a new one you won't soon forget-even if for the wrong reasons.
