Journalist Elara Collins never expected her latest assignment to lead her to Greyhaven, the secluded and storied estate of the powerful Aldric family. What was supposed to be a simple Christmas feature becomes something far more complicated the moment she steps through the mansion doors.
Greyhaven is beautiful-grand halls, glittering chandeliers, and snow-draped terraces-but its elegance hides tension, silence, and secrets that no one will speak of.
At the center of that silence is Ezra Aldric-brooding, brilliant, and determined to keep Lara at a distance, drawing a line she can't help but want to cross. While the rest of the family smiles for appearances, Ezra watches her every move, as though he's guarding the truth... or hiding from it.
Pulled deeper into the family's tangled history, and drawn to the one man who won't let her close, Lara soon realizes:
Some stories don't want to be written.
Some houses remember too much.
And some hearts thaw only in winter.
As Christmas Eve approaches, tensions rise, long-buried memories stir, and Lara must decide whether revealing the truth will destroy the Aldrics-or save the one person she never meant to fall for.
A story of winter shadows, slow-burning desire, and the dangerous beauty of a house that keeps its secrets-until the snow falls.
