A hardworking mechanic she shot down before. A generous diner owner sure he was asking for the wrong reasons. Will the magic of Christmas—and a holiday blizzard—deliver a second chance at love? Sloane When the irresistible mechanic I’d lusted over for years actually asked me out, it was out of pity. I knew better than to believe he’d actually go for a curvy girl like me. Ever since I turned him down, I’ve steered clear of the long, lean hottie. Which is hard when you both run small businesses in a town as teeny tiny as Ravish Ridge. But it’s worked out okay. Until now. When, thanks to a charitable project and a holiday blizzard, we’re snowed in together and he seems hell bent on discovering why I said no. Not that in a million years I can tell him the truth. Trevor All I want for Christmas is a chance to convince the woman who turned me down years ago to say yes. Or at least give me the real reason she said no. And thanks to a merry miracle, my only wish comes true when a blizzard blows in just as the curvy diner owner I’ve never stopped pining for swings by my shop to check on the non-profit project we’re both helping with. I’ve got one night to persuade this woman I’m the man for her, even though she’s still way out of my league. One-click this steamy short read today to see if Christmas really is the most wonderful time of the year… to reveal old mistakes and find true love.
