What happens when you're snowed in on a mountain ranch with the one man you definitely should not be fantasizing about?

I've always done what was expected of me. Layla Birch, the good girl. Forced to grow up too fast. To take care of everything myself. I had a plan.

Only, I didn't count on him. Colton Wilder, the cowboy nearly twice my age. One who takes care of me, gives me a job, and makes my pulse thud harder every time he comes near.

My ex-boyfriend's father.

As the snow grows thicker and the tension builds between us, we're both inching closer to a line we shouldn't cross.

Each day, it grows harder to resist the man who looks at me with longing in his eyes. It's tempting to forget about being the good girl for once.

No one would find out. Would they?
