This was a sweet contemporary romance that took place in a small, isolated village in Alaska.  I loved the descriptions of the scenery, especially the romantic atmosphere created by the Northern Lights.  Josie has a plan for her life, to cook with the famous Chef Anton in Seattle.  Although Palmer falls in love with her during her summer cooking adventure in Alaska, he also has a plan for his life; he wants to continue to pursue his career as a master sword smith in Ponder.  Dreams clash with reality in this quick, easy read.  My favorite character by far was Jack, the quirky comic relief to all of the drama.  Jack is always hungry and is determined to do all he can to get Josie to marry Palmer, just so she can be in Ponder to cook for him.  I also liked Palmer’s dog Hobo who seemed to understand humans a lot better than we understand ourselves sometimes.  This book was entertaining and humorous at time, set at that magical time between Thanksgiving and Christmas and proving that sometimes wishes do come true.
