On nights when the snow falls just right, the cocoa at Ellery's Café does more than warm your hands.
It opens doors.
Ellian, a lonely single father trying to hold it together for his daughter, doesn't believe in magic-until the night he sips the café's infamous "Ellery Special." Time softens. Snow glows. And a chance collision with a stranger, Sabine, begins to feel like destiny.
But when the two find themselves sharing the same dream-a thing the cocoa was never meant to do-they're thrust into a delicate, time-bound realm where what they want and what they need become harder to tell apart.
There's a countdown.
There's a choice.
And if they don't wake up in time, they may never wake at all.
A story of love, second chances, and the kind of magic that only visits once-this is a winter tale for anyone who's ever longed to rewrite their ending.
