When party girl Catherine Davenport was sent to stay with her cousins for Christmas, she didnât count on getting stuck with an irritating, antisocial soldier.
Catherineâs stubborn independence leads her from a bad vacation in Lake Tahoe to the middle of an art heist, and she winds up trapped in a cabin. But sheâs not the only one hiding, and the wounded Green Beret inside is just as icy as the blizzard that traps them both.
To stay safe and sane in the raging storm, Catherine has to rely on her wits and reluctantly trust the young and handsome soldier, Seth. He in turn slowly warms up to his unwanted houseguest despite his best efforts. Catherine keeps his nightmares at bay, and Seth can see past her masks, and the emotional walls theyâve both put up begin crumbling. But the longer theyâre together, the more they start to realize the dangers waiting for them outside are more related than they thought, and the stormâand their growing attractionâis the least of their worries.
