'A perfect little festive cowboy treat' ***** 
 
-- 
 
My plan was to visit my boyfriend back home in Crimson Ridge for the holidays. Except, my surprise trip, after shutting up my florists shop for the festive season, only ended up revealing the worst kind of betrayal. 
 
Now, I'm hiding from the guy I just caught cheating on me, while stranded with a flat tire and a snowstorm approaching. 
 
All it took was a slip of my thumb, a press of the wrong contact name in my phone. 
 
Instead of dialling my best friend for help, I accidentally called my lifelong cowboy crush. 
 
My best friend's father. 
 
Lucas Rhodes is a man I haven't seen in twelve months. Not since last New Year's Eve when he drove me home. . . alone. 
 
If we get snowed in together on this ranch tonight, how am I supposed to resist my every teenage fantasy when he's looking at me like that?

Elliott Rose

What happens when you're snowed in on a mountain ranch with the one man you definitely should not be fantasizing about? 
 
I've always done what was expected of me. Layla Birch, the good girl. Forced to grow up too fast. To take care of everything myself. I had a plan. 
 
Only, I didn't count on him. Colton Wilder, the cowboy nearly twice my age. One who takes care of me, gives me a job, and makes my pulse thud harder every time he comes near. 
 
My ex-boyfriend's father. 
 
As the snow grows thicker and the tension builds between us, we're both inching closer to a line we shouldn't cross. 
 
Each day, it grows harder to resist the man who looks at me with longing in his eyes. It's tempting to forget about being the good girl for once. 
 
No one would find out. Would they?
