As is the case for most of her books, this is a great two-story book about the romances of two confirmed bachelors in Alaska. The townsfolk are charming and the stories are sweet. The brothers own a fleet of small plans that fly prople and freight to the most inaccessible parts of the huge state of Alaska. The men in their employ are leaving because they are so remote, they can't have relationships with women so that they can pick brides. So one of the brothers decides that they need to bring women to the town so that the men will stay and their business will be secure. Little do they know that they are the ones who will be shot by cupid's arrow as the women appear in town! If you like romance novels that are chaste and charming this book is for you. If you want sizzling passion, look elsewhere. This is a book your daughters and sons can read.

Book one in the Midnight Sons series about a family of brothers living in Hard Luck, Alaska which is a very small community far from civilization. The brothers own a flying service and decide to advertise in the Seattle paper for women to come to Hard Luck and get jobs. Book one focuses on Sawyer and Abby and how they meet and fall in love.

A fun light hearted romantic read. This is the first book in a series of three. Each book contains two stories about the lonely men in a remote part of Alaska and the women they hire and bring in to make life more enjoyable. This first book has two stories about two, out of the three brothers, who were the first ones to fall in love and marry two of the new women in town. I enjoyed reading the book and plan on reading the other two in the series.

Debbie Macomber originally wrote this series about Alaska in 1995 and 1996 after a very pleasant visit to Alaska. This is the first book in the "Midnight Sons" series and features two books: Brides for Brothers and The Marriage Risk. Both stories center around a very small town in Northern Alaska and tell the tale of brothers who fall in love with new comers to town. Very entertaining.

Good story line once I got into the book. It is set in modern day instead of the late 1800's like I had thought.
