other story . . . SOME SAY THE FOX IS GOOD LUCK In the mountain village of Fox Crossing, Maine, everyone knows the story of The Fox. According to local legend, one of the town&’s founders crossed paths with a curious-looking fox with a distinctive white ear and paw.

Some people say that whoever sees The Fox will be rewarded with good fortune, love, and happiness. Others say it&’s just a silly folk tale . . . WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY? Annie Hatherley doesn&’t believe The Fox legend—even though it was her great-great-great-grandmother who spotted the critter centuries ago. But now it&’s part of Annie&’s legacy, along with her family business, Hatherley&’s Outfitters. For years, Annie&’s been selling gear to hikers on the Appalachian Trail. But she&’s never seen The Fox—until now. Out of nowhere, this little white-eared vixen leads her to Nick Ferrone, a woefully unprepared hiker who needs her help. The Shoo Fly Bakery owner also spots the sly creature—who takes him to a homeless dog that needs his love. Annie can&’t deny that something magical is happening—because she&’s starting to fall for a certain foxy hiker named Nick . . .
