Setting off fire alarms while making hot chocolate wasn’t how I planned to meet the most gorgeous firefighter in Montana.
All I wanted was one quiet night at the Snowcap Inn before spending Christmas alone. No family drama, no awkward questions about my single status, just me and a simple cup of cocoa.
But when my midnight kitchen experiment goes disastrously wrong, I find myself drenched from sprinklers and face-to-face with Corey—six feet of calm, steady rescue in a uniform.
Protocol requires him to stay until the system resets, which means we’re both stranded in the lobby while the rest of the inn sleeps. Just the two of us, a crackling fire, and the kind of conversation that makes you forget the world outside exists.
I’ve always been the girl who runs away. What happens when I finally meet someone worth running toward?
