Bethany never planned to stay in Alaska but her friends kept settling down with guys. Gretchen is even getting married-sort of. The group relationship norm makes it tempting to stay. When a trio of men take an interest in Bethany that feels serious, she wants to flee. She was never interested in domestic bliss, as her mother put it. However, she found a good job with a boss and clients who needs her. She's sticking around at least until her friend gets hitched-but her guys aren't letting her go without a fight.
