  To thwart her uncle's efforts to take over the farm left to her by her father, Sophia accepts a convenient marriage proposal. Her triumph is brief. Philip Eliot, the man she has loved her whole life, appears on her doorstep after a long, silent absence. 
   
   
   
  Philip Eliot promised his beloved Sophia that they would marry as soon as he turned twenty-one and gained his independence. But his meddlesome mother conspired to end the affair by sending him to France and intercepting their correspondence. Now he is back and doing everything he can to remind Sophia of the love they once shared. 
   
   
   
  Sophia convinces herself that she and Philip are merely friends but is unable to ignore the longing within her. Will she refuse Philip in favor of the stable life she's committed to, or risk her farm, her livelihood, and all those who depend on her to be with the man she truly loves?

  Alaskan Explorer Mikhail Amos can count the number of bad decisions he’s made in his life on one hand. But when he’s called out on the cusp of winter to track down and rescue a team of lost botanists in the wilds of Alaska, he can’t say no. It doesn’t matter that every last instinct tells him he won’t get the team out before winter. The scientists on the expedition are someone’s father and brother. Mikhail knows what it’s like to lose both of those, and he’d never wish that loss on another person. 
  But as Mikhail soon discovers, the team also happens to include the lead scientist’s daughter, Bryony Whetherby, whose ability to survive in the wilderness and knack for drawing maps intrigue him in a way no woman ever has before. 
  But people on the team are carrying secrets, and Mikhail soon isn’t sure what holds the most danger, the encroaching Alaskan winter, the secrets between the members, or lowering the walls he’s built around his heart. Can love survive when survival itself is uncertain? 
  From a USA Today bestselling author comes a frontier family saga filled with a rugged explorer, a dangerous journy, and love that heals wounded hearts.

  Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
   
  In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
   
  The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
   
  Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
   
  In this volume we examine one of the great names from the past whose works invite life, rituals and the spirit world together to fashion dramatic and chilling unforeseen happenings.
