About this ebook

After getting dumped right before Christmas, Millie heads to Alaska to visit an old friend for the holidays. But her getaway takes a turn when she winds up stuck in a remote cabin — with only her friend’s gorgeous brother, MMA fighter Ryder, to keep her warm…

*

He’s the only gift she wants to unwrap this Christmas…

If you believe the hype, Christmas is supposed to be a time to spend with loved ones.

And up until a few days ago, I was blissfully happy, in full holiday mode and planning to visit my family in Iowa with my lovely new boyfriend, Adam.

But rather than the engagement ring I expected and the happy introduction to my family, Adam dumps me.

Via email.

I did not handle it well.

Seven-ish Margaritas and half a box of tissues later, and I’ve somehow accidentally agreed to spend Christmas in Alaska.

To make matters worse, when I touch down in Anchorage, it’s not my sweet old college roommate, Cindy waiting for me with more tissues, but her smoking hot brother, Ryder.

I’m supposed to be writing a review of Cindy's retreat for the travel magazine I work for, and getting over Adam, not fantasizing about smooching a broody ex MMA fighter under the mistletoe.

As if the three-hour drive back to the retreat with him wasn’t awkward enough, knowing Cindy’s broken her ankle and can’t show me around makes it even worse.

My reluctant tour guide has made it clear I’m an inconvenience, so wandering off to take photos of the Northern Lights and falling through the ice, only makes him resent my intrusion more.

But after we’re forced to spend a night snuggled together in his cabin to stave off hypothermia, and he lets slip why he hates Christmas, I’m pretty sure there’s warmth under his icy exterior.

If I can get just get him to let his guard down long enough to tell me why he lives like a cross between a prepper and a hermit in the wilderness, there’s a chance I might still be here come New Years…

Ratings and reviews

The author has pulled us into the lives of Ryder and Millie and never lets go. He has been hiding out in the mountains but when his sister begs for help picking her friend up at the airport, he helps even if it against his will. They end up stranded at his rustic cabin during a snowstorm and each will need to let down their walls if they want to be able to last the weekend together instead of driving each other crazy. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Millie and Ryder are smoking hot together and I loved their banter and back and forth. Forced to spend time together finally sees him opening up though and I loved seeing his walls come down. This is one great holiday read that will sure warm you up.

Millie is not very happy when her boyfriend, instead of offering her an engagement ring ends up dumping her… by email. Trying to drown her sorrows at a bar, she ends up heading for Alaska to write a review for her former college roommate Cindy’s retreat on behalf of the travel magazine she works for. But instead of finding Cindy waiting for her and ready to commiserate the boyfriend disaster with her, she gets stuck with Cindy’s former MMA grouchy brother, Ryder, ready to escort her around since Cindy broke her ankle! When Millie and Ryder have to spend some nights together at his isolated cabin due to the big snowstorm, he accidentally tells her why he hates Christmas. He might not be such an ogre after all! Is he finally able to open up to someone? You won’t see the shocker coming, so grab your copy and hang on tight!

About the author

Lexi Hart is an escaped lunatic from New Zealand masquerading as an author.

She’s interviewed detectives, spent a night in a police station and been for a ride-along in the back of a police car, all in the name of research.

If you can track her down, you’ll most likely find her watching British comedies, quizzes, a combination of the two, or reading mysteries.

When her slightly malfunctioning body allows, she writes romance stories filled with twists, humor, and a whole lot of steam.
