It’s been years since he last visited the Glacier Bluff hotel, one of their less well-known yet premiere properties in the highest mountains of Scandinavia. He’s grown his hair long, his beard out, and has tatted up since his last visit. He’s dressed like a ski-bum, and he’s pretty sure he can pull this undercover boss thing off. But on day one – his plans get totally iced. He’s not alone chasing powder at the crack of dawn. There's someone in the chair in front of him, going up to the same expert slope. Is it someone he knows from the X circuit? The snow clears enough for him to get a better look. It's a woman for one, and there's no way she's a real boarder, not with that gear. Looks like she got her clothes at the hotel gift shop, and those are definitely rentals. She doesn't belong up here. Two hours later, he's sitting by her bedside when she comes to at the nearest medical facility. She's alive, with a broken leg, instead of frozen to death on that empty mountain where she crashed.

Only she has no clue who he is. And he can't tell her. She's a journalist! She'll blow his cover. He feels guilty for not being honest with her, since she's so forthcoming.

After this assignment, she's perfectly happy to go back to being Jamaicka Grant, 'Celebrity Poodle Photographer Extraordinaire.' Jamaicka Grant makes Kynon Morrison laugh. So, when she's starts to show signs of being upset - he has to help her. For some reason, he just can't bear to see her unhappy. She's convinced that her dick boss Danny will fire her if she doesn't complete her assignment. And she's only got a week to shoot a ton of outdoor adventure shots, how's she going to do that with a broken leg? Fake ski-bum, workaholic billionaire, Ky offers to come to her rescue. He can't help himself. She's so darn adorable! Forget about the undercover job for a few days. Help the lady in distress! Of course, she agrees and the billionaire's gets his Snow Date! This is a standalone BWWM Romantic Comedy.
