The Ends of the Earth
The tickets came with strings attached

Jennifer Martinson knew precisely why her grandfather wanted her in Alaska. To drag poor Keenan back to California for a Martinson Brubecker marriage merger, the dream of two wily old powerbrokers.

Oh, Jen would go all right -- but not to find a husband. She would find incredible opposition from Hal Bailey, head of Ultima's Arctic Research Facility -- and sworn Martinson-hater.

To him she was just a "sun bunny lost in the snow. .." as troublesome as the two California gray whales who didn't have the sense to go home, either.

Hero: Hal Bailey
Heroine: Jennifer Martinson
