title: The Marriage Risk
author: Macomber, Debbie
description: Hard Luck, Alaska -- a town that needs women!
  
  Location: 50 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Population: 150--mostly men--but growing! Because the O'Halloran brothers, who run a bush-plane service called Midnight Sons, are heading a campaign to bring women to Hard Luck!
  
  Charles O'Halloran--The oldest brother. Surveyor and not-so-silent partner in Midnight Sons. Like his brothers, he has a distrust of marriage in general--and a distrust of anyone related to Catherine Harmon Fletcher, the woman who did so much to destroy his parents' marriage.
  
  Lanni Caldwell--She's the only woman Charles has ever fallen for, the only one who might convince him to take the marriage risk. They meet when she visits Hard Luck on a family matter. But there's something Lanni hasn't told Charles--and doesn't want to. She's Catherine's granddaughter....
