Noah Stern's patients at Seattle Children’s Hospital don’t mind his OCD quirks. He loves his job as a physical therapist. Working with children is easy. Checking in on Gideon “the Beast” Wilder at his remote mountain cabin as a favor for the owner of the Seattle Emeralds proves to be anything but easy. Gideon seems determined to live up to his nickname. But beneath his surly demeanor, Noah glimpses a man who is longing for love.
Seattle Emeralds star player Gideon Wilder doesn’t want company, especially a physical therapist with a charming smile and eyes that sparkle when he laughs. Noah Stern’s arrival on his doorstep is an unwelcome interruption, complicated when an avalanche traps them together for Hanukkah. Gideon came to his cabin to nurse both the physical injury that ruined his soccer season and a heart broken by failed relationships. People he dares to love always leave him. Noah will surely do the same.
With each homemade Hanukkah gift, Noah tames the Beast. When the snow clears and Hanukkah comes to an end, Gideon’s fear takes hold before he realizes that Noah's presence in his life has been the greatest gift of all. Will Noah accept Gideon’s belated Hanukkah gift—Gideon’s heart?
