Auld Lang Sigh

On Christmas Eve, Elowen Foster tries to save her long-term relationship with a grand romantic gesture-only to walk straight into betrayal, champagne shattering on tile as her high school sweetheart is caught cheating over his desk.

A week later, still raw and humiliated, she's dragged to a New Year's Eve party hosted by her best friend and her husband... who has invited the cheating ex and his shiny new replacement.

Cornered, hurting, and trying not to cry into a plastic flute of prosecco, she's rescued by the one man she never expected to want her comfort-

Rowan Hale
Her best friend's older brother.
The Viking.
The one who used to tease her relentlessly.
The one she secretly crushed on for years.

What begins as a strategic distraction turns into one unforgettable night that changes everything.
