When Emily Sawyer’s world is upended by a disastrous flood that leaves her jobless and homeless, she finds herself grappling with more than just the loss of her possessions. With her spirits sinking lower by the minute, she reluctantly agrees to her best friend Callie’s suggestion to come home … just until she can figure out what comes next. In practically no time at all, the icy shell around Emily’s heart begins to crack—especially around Luke, Callie’s older brother. He’s no longer just the boy next door but a handsome, charming firefighter Emily can’t pull her eyes away from. The crush she had on him as a teen seems suddenly silly compared to what she’s feeling now. And when a snowstorm sweeps in, trapping them in his cabin, their connection ignites. As the pair explore their attraction, whispered confessions change everything between them. But as Emily’s time in Snowfall Valley dwindles, she is faced with a daunting choice. Does she cling to the life she’s built back in the city, or does she dare to embrace the unexpected love she’s found with Luke? Can she put her fears aside and embark on a new path … one that she never even dared to dream of?
