The love of her life walked out on their marriage over a year ago, for a slimmer, younger version of Ashley. She couldn't forget his hurtful parting words, and it was just easier to go it alone. So why does she feel her heart flutter and her insides tense every time someone mentions…him? Preston Alcott has always been a playboy. Wealthy, successful, and as alpha as they get, he’s never had a woman say no to him. So why is this gorgeous curvy nurse constantly turning him away? It seems like she’s looking for any excuse to keep from getting close to him. If Ashley’s reluctance to be with Preston wasn’t enough, fate puts them together in a small ski resort, cut off from the rest of the world by a blizzard…and surrounded by a few people who may have played part in a murder. As they try to unravel this mystery, they may just figure out what can finally bring them closer to each other. Preston is the only person Ashley knows she can trust here. Will she be willing to take a risk with her heart? BOOK ONE EXCERPT: “I’m on the rebound,” she said, and it was mostly true, but she wasn’t telling him because she wanted him to know she was vulnerable. She was telling him because she wanted to hide her vulnerability, and have a cushion for the morning, for when he saw her in the light of day. “It wouldn’t be anything except—” “I get it.” He said it a little too quickly, like he expected it. Or like he was willing to say anything right now, if it meant he could have her. She pulled back to look at him. “Okay,” she said, even as her heart leapt into her throat. His eyes were heavy lidded and dark, his cheeks carrying a hint of flush. There was an edge to his voice when he spoke. “So how about it?” “Yeah,” she said after a beat, after a dry swallow, after a brief but thorough pep talk with herself. “Guess I’m due a little…fun.” His smirk was just the right side of filthy.
