Evan
There’s a lot going on in my life, especially with Christmas right around the corner. Needing a breather, I plan to escape to my family’s cabin.
I never expect to find her along the way.
June Danvers. The one woman I haven’t been able to stop thinking about since High School. One might we were friends, and the next we just … weren’t.
It’s clear June hates my guts but luckily we’re trapped in this cabin for the next twenty-four to forty-eight hours so I’m going to make the most of it and show her that the heat she’s feeling isn’t from the fireplace.
We’re meant to be, and whatever kept June away from me will melt away eventually, just like this snow.

Staying away from Sage River for the last five years was deliberate. It’s no surprise I’m not even at the town line when I hit a patch of black ice and lose control of my car.
When I come to, the face behind the flashlight of my savior is none other than my former high-school tormentor, Evan Butler.
The last possible person I wanted to see.
Evan suggests we head to his family’s hunting cabin for the night to keep warm. Warm is one way of describing the heat suddenly threatening to consume me when Evan gives me one of those looks.
The curves he used to carelessly tease me for, he now wants to claim for his own. But how can I trust my heart to a guy who once mercilessly crushed it? Or is the Evan I know different from the one promising to cherish me for all eternity?
