Her Yule His Log


Book Description

All snowed in and nowhere to go… Forty year-old Natalie Leonidis booked her stay at Crystal Springs Getaways long before the weather report came in. With her ex getting remarried, the successful author of a popular detective series was just looking for a quiet way to spend the holidays. She wasn’t counting on the travel agent double booking her coveted one bedroom cabin! Bron Beckett needed a break from running his Fortune 500 company. After two failed marriages, he could attest to the fact that women and wealth were not always friends. It was getting harder to know if a woman wanted him or what was in his bank account. Being single during the holidays was the worst. It was like everyone had a cousin or sister for him to meet—but not this year. He had plans to get away from it all. With the latest release from his favorite author and a tumbler of his favorite label, Whiskey Neat, Bron was going to kick back while the yule log crackled in the fireplace. Sounded like a perfect Christmas. But he wasn’t the only one with designs on cabin 1225. His uninvited guest could stay and make the best of it. Or leave and take her chances with the incoming blizzard. One look at her luscious figure and Bron knew exactly what he wanted—to spend Christmas Eve with the curvy Natalie wrapped around him. No reservations. No rules. Just her yule and his log. Popular Tropes Contemporary Romance, Snowed In, Spicy Holidays, Over 40, Later in Life, InstaLust, InstaLove
