Lena Walker didn't come to the mountains to make friends-she came to escape. After a messy breakup and a year that nearly broke her spirit, all she wants is a quiet weekend at a remote ski lodge where no one knows her name.
But when a snowstorm traps her at the lodge with only a handful of strangers-and one frustratingly closed-off boy named Kai Rivers-Lena's plans for solitude melt away. As power goes out, snow piles high, and the world outside freezes over, something between them begins to thaw.
Kai has his own reasons for keeping people at a distance. But Lena's warmth-and her pain-start to mirror his own in unexpected ways. Over shared meals, silent stares, and moments by the fire, two broken souls start to find comfort in each other's presence.
But when the storm clears... will they leave what they found behind?
