A snow storm, a grumpy cat, a war hero, and a reckless beauty... Nineteen year-old debutant, Rose Darnell, plans to compromise the man she loves, war hero Sir Ian Temple, when he escorts her back to the country for Christmas. Ten years her senior, Sir Ian, an ambitious politician, has no intention of falling for the wilful charmer. However, perhaps a snowstorm, two cardsharps, and a grumpy cat, can divert Sir Ian’s path from a suitably staid wife to a reckless beauty he can’t resist.
