When Mia Blake arrives in Vermont for a peaceful Christmas holiday escape, she expects quiet mornings and time away from her chaotic life. Instead, she ends up stranded in a blizzard with no power, no phone signal, and no place to stay. Her rescue comes in the form of Ethan Carter, a rugged single dad living in the secluded cabin next door, and his sweet five-year-old daughter, Lily. Forced to share a roof with them while the storm rages, Mia soon discovers that the handsome dad is carrying wounds far deeper than the snow can cover. Their unexpected chemistry heats into stolen glances, slow-burn touches, and nights where the tension grows too thick to ignore. But buried secrets, dangerous shadows from Ethan’s past, and a twist that threatens their fragile bond force Mia to choose: run back to her old life, or stay and fight for a love she never saw coming.

Tatlong araw pa lang nagtatrabaho sa kompanya si Cresilda ay hindi na niya maiwasan ang hindi mainis sa boss nila. Ubod ito ng sungit, at hindi man lang ngumingiti. Parating galit at perfectionist pa. Kaya naman ng dumating ang araw ng ika-78th anniversary party ng kompanya ay wala siyang balak na dumalo. Pero ipinag-utos ng boss nila na ang hindi dumalo ay walang Christmas bonus na matatanggap. Kaya naman, walang choice si Criselda. Halos ubusin na niya ang wine sa wine counter sa sobrang inis habang nasa party. Pero ganon na lamang ang gulat niya nang magising siya kinabukasan na walang suot na damit at katabi ang boss nila.

After Christmas, I went on a vacation. For the trip back, I failed to get a train ticket with a sleeping berth. Thus, I was tired and mussed when I got home. When I opened the door, someone shoved a bunch of cleaning tools at me. The man sneered at me and commanded, “Hurry up! You need to finish cleaning this place before 6:00 p.m.!” I looked at him and saw that he was wearing my father’s silk pajamas. I took a few steps back to check that yes, this was my family’s two-story mansion. It was my home, but who was this man? And what was this about cleaning? Did the man intend for me to clean? I was the son of the owners of the house! I messaged the family’s group chat and mentioned my mother. The message read, [@Mom, your boytoy is asking me to clean the place up. What gives?]
