There is magic in Malsum Pass…
For Allison Harris, the only thing to look forward to around Christmas is the extra money she could earn in tips working as wait staff for the ritzy holiday parties on the mountain. After all, when you’re alone like her, Christmas is just another day on the calendar. But when her car leaves her stranded on the side of the road, in the middle of nowhere, with an empty wallet, and a blizzard breathing down her neck, she has no choice but to accept the hospitality of others as she takes shelter in the small town of Malsum Pass.
Zachary Pierce is larger than life, with a sense of humor and playful nature that has Allison quickly forgetting her worries, as her attraction to the man grows. It has been so long since she’s taken a moment and just had fun, but thanks to Zack, she can’t help but reconnect with her forgotten sense of whimsy, and with Christmas fast approaching, Allison feels the spirit of the holiday take hold.
Just the scent of Allison had told Zack that she was his destined mate, but this blizzard that had brought them together, wouldn’t last forever. He needed to work fast if he wanted to keep her, and what better way, than to show her the true magic of Christmas?
