A high-stakes, snowbound second-chance romance where past heartbreak collides with present danger.
What it feels like
Reading this vintage romance feels like watching a classic nineties romantic thriller on a snowy afternoon. The atmosphere is a compelling mix of cozy holiday isolation and simmering, high-stakes tension, as the protagonists are trapped together in a remote hotel while hiding from a killer. The pace is brisk, driven equally by the external threat and the unresolved, crackling chemistry of a disastrously ended past affair. It is emotionally heightened and dramatic, leaning into the delicious angst of forced proximity and second chances.

About the book
Christmas wishes... Christmas kisses... Paris Reid wasn't prepared to settle for less than the best where men were concerned! But the best was Will Bryson. After their affair had ended disastrously three years ago, Paris hadn't so much as looked at another man. Now holed up in a remote hotel, under police guard, Will and Paris were destined to spend Christmas together. They were being hunted by an escaped murderer — a man they'd helped to convict. Things looked pretty dismal...but Paris knew exactly what she wanted for Christmas. It was just a question of whether she would get him.
