❄️ Colder Than Winter ❄️
Marília had always dreamed of seeing the snow.
To her, winter symbolized something pure - the quiet rebirth that follows every storm. But when she decides to spend her vacation in Winterwold, a small town where the cold seems to live year-round, Lia carries within her a heart frozen by loss, disappointment, and a faith she no longer knows how to hold on to.
Daniel has lived in Winterwold his whole life. Orphaned as a boy, he learned not to expect much from life beyond what his hard work could give him. Owner of a small hotel, he watches tourists come and go while he remains - bound to the routine and solitude he's learned to call home.
He believes in love, but not that love was ever meant for him.
When Lia checks into his hotel, two quiet worlds collide. She's searching for God's presence in the snow. He's trying to hide from the God he no longer feels.
Between late-night talks by the fireplace, shy laughter, and whispered prayers, both will learn that sometimes true warmth doesn't come from the fire - but from forgiveness.
Because the strongest kind of love is the one that melts the ice within a soul.
And in the end, they'll have to face one question:
What's harder - to love someone imperfect, or to let yourself be loved by God?
