Summaries are from the publisher's flyer:

  • Often Ends in Love by Gillian Middleton ("One moment Fraser, Ray and Diefenbaker are at a restaurant, enjoying a quiet meal. The next, they are in the hold of a ship on lake Michigan ... headed due north. How they got there confounds them - until a gas grenade stuns them unconscious, and when they wake once more they are in Canada's far north. A thousand miles from anywhere, and badly injured, Ray and Fraser find themselves fighting just to survive ... and love blossoms in the most unlikely soil.)
  • First of the Season by Martina Gillespie (It's been a long hot summer in the state of Illinois, and Ray has not been blind to the fact that hot weather hardly suits a guy born and bred in Yukon Territory!. Winter comes as a relief ... and with the first snow of the season, Raymond Vecchio has - plans! Nudge, nudge. Here's a PWP to put a smile on your face!")
  • Crossroads by Catherine Farley ("It's a time of decision-making, soul-searching, and it's not easy. Ray Vecchio arrives home in Chicago after attending a family reunion back in 'the old country,' only to find that in his absence 'all hell' has indeed broken loose for Ben Fraser. Old ways are gone, and new ways must be found. Without even leaving O'Hare, Ray is on another plane, this time heading for Whitehorse and points north. No are at the consulate will talk about Fraser's trouble, and Ray intends to head this one off at the pass - fast But even he can't guess what might be happening.")
  • Somewhere North of Sixty by Jane ("Fraser's and Vecchio's routine is radically interrupted by a 'call to arms' from the RCMP, and to Ray's astonishment it involves him, too. A major criminal he once arrested broke out of prison months before, but witnesses may have just identified him - in Canada's Arctic Circle. The problem is that something is going on in a region so remote and inaccessible, every time an officer goes in, he simply vanishes. In fact. the last man to go into that zone and return was one Constable Benton Fraser, and the RCMP break the long silence of disapproval to ask Fraser to undertake the assignment. Ray can scarcely believe that he and Fraser are officially working this assignment together, and that his job, on Lt Welsh's instructions, takes him into a land of great beauty and great danger ... the land Ben Fraser calls home.")
