When a blizzard derails Lucy’s holiday travel plans, she braves a rideshare with a blast from the past: the dashing fling she ghosted months prior. Talk about awkwardness. Still, with flights canceled a ride home with her sexy stranger, Jake may be her only hope of making Christmas with mom’s freshly baked cookies.
The frost between them is colder than the icy highways they’ll share for endless awkward hours. But as the miles roll by, warm nostalgia and simmering attraction could rekindle a connection stronger than the storm outside.
Laughter thaws the chilling tension, conversations get cozier than flannel pajamas, and soon their steamy chemistry sparks once more. Will Lucy and Jake take a detour down memory lane for a holiday hookup? Or will the ghosts of flame-outs past nip their yuletide romance in the bud again?
Either way, ‘tis the season for second chances and learning love lessons the hard way—like why not to ice out a great guy’s number. Can Lucy leverage holiday magic to unlock Jake’s guarded heart at last? With passion, playfulness, and penetrating insight into modern romance, this witty enemies-to-lovers tale shows why the course of true love never did run smooth.
