She swore she'd never come back. He's spent ten years trying to forget her. Now they're trapped together-and this time, she's not running.

Emma Hartley left Summit Creek with a broken heart and a one-way ticket to anywhere else. Now her family's beloved mountain lodge is failing, and she's the only one who can save it. The catch? She has to work with Cole Brennan-the mountain rescue leader whose heart she shattered when she left without explanation.

Cole built a good life after Emma disappeared. He leads his team, protects his town, and definitely doesn't think about the girl who got away. Except now she's back, staying in the lodge's honeymoon suite, and those old feelings are dangerously close to the surface.

With eight weeks until Christmas and everything on the line, Emma and Cole must navigate snowstorms, family secrets, and the undeniable pull between them. Some hearts are worth the climb back home.
