During a New England snowstorm, spirited single mom Emerson Brown is stuck in the castle of elusive billionaire Liam Wyatt and she's less than happy to discover he sent for her under sneaky pretenses. The one-night stand they'd shared years earlier, full of spontaneous adventure and seductive passion, has stuck with Liam throughout the years. Thoughts of the vivacious redhead who'd captivated him provided light during the dark times of dealing with his brother's illness. And now, each trapped away from family and responsibility, those dormant desires spark to life and the two must decide if it's just another night together, or if they will take their second chance to turn the fairytale into reality.
