Matthew Garrison is searching for his family, and they aren't the people who raised him.
At least, not all of them.
But when Matthew heads to the Weston Horse Ranch in search of the one person who can fill in the blanks, Mother Nature hands him the adventure he didn't ask for instead.
Vanessa Barrett is making an escape, and there's not a single cowboy who can stop her.
Vanessa's priorities for attending her best friend's wedding are simple and firm: Watch the bride kiss the groom, then get as far away from that godforsaken ranch as possible.
This is one cowgirl who has perfected the art of riding into the sunset.
Except there's a blizzard raging outside, the roads are blocked, there is only one cabin, and a handsome stranger needs her help.
They're two lost souls brought together by a twist of fate, and once the storm dies down, they'll go their separate ways.
But for now, they'll ride out that blizzard the best way they can. By making a little heat of their own.
