William and James, father and son, are Canadian tradesmen traveling to the treacherous Alaska, with their sled, and a dozen canines. It's always been said, "What you don't know, won't kill you," but is that simple saying, always true? What these men don't know, is that a blizzard Is coming, and coming fast. They would be blown off course, and forced to carry on. The duo will have to face the unknowns in Canada's tundra, avoid wolves, bears, Natives, freezing and starving to death. They would have to travel endlessly across the uncivilized, dangerous forests and plains to find safety. Safety, for William and James, is key, it could and would be a tree, cave, snow bank, or even isolation. They would have to sacrifice, even the greatest things, they would have to survive.

Sixteen-year-old Opal might be everything you hate in a person. She's snobby, conceited, and has more popularity than she knows what to do with in her sunny and densely populated Florida city. In contrast, Jack, nicknamed "Alaska" by Opal in regards to the quiet Alaskan town where he resides, is sweet, caring, and compassionate. The two are complete opposites in almost every way. When Opal is whisked away to some unheard of town in Alaska to spend spring break with her older brother and brand new and annoying stepsister, she is not happy. After all, spring break is a time to tan and lay by the pool, not freeze in the snow as you only get paler. But things get even more complicated when an accident leaves Opal and Jack lost in the middle of nowhere with nothing more than a survival backpack and each other. Though the two were brought together by chance and they disagree on practically everything, they now must rely on each other if they want to get back in one piece. With constant battles being thrown their way that seem nearly impossible to overcome, confessions that are bound to be unleashed, and the blossoming promise of second chances, there is no telling what lies ahead for these two.
