Trapped in the heart of a snowstorm, can the former lovers rekindle their long lost flame?

Russell

Ten years ago, I made a decision that changed the course of my life forever and I joined the military. After nearly getting myself blown up by a landmine, I'm disabled - deaf in my left ear and damn near blind in my left eye.

Now I live alone in the Montana wilderness, isolated, working as a park ranger.

Until the day I cross paths with her, hiking a snow-laden trail up the mountain. Just like we used to do together, every Christmas Eve.

I thought I lost Clara all those years ago. We were young, hopelessly in love, our heads full of dreams for the future. I broke it off when I was injured. I didn't want her to see me like this - damaged, broken.

But I never stopped loving her.

Clara

I thought he was a bear at first. Big, burly, with a bushy beard, and a scowl that would frighten off anyone who dared to look his way.

Russell "Russ" McFarland. The man I had been so sure I would marry. Until it fell apart and he dumped me.

I'm torn between relief at seeing him again, and hating his guts after breaking my heart, leaving me to pick up the pieces.

When a snowstorm forces Russell and I into the close quarters of his ranger's cabin, we soon find out that our feelings for each other are still burning hot.

Can we make up for lost time and pick up where we left off? Or will the scars we carry force us apart again?
