Aspen Holly is spending Christmas break alone in her dorm room. At least, that’s the plan before her best friend, Henry, invites her to stay with him and his sister, Clara, at his cabin in the mountains of Aspen, Colorado. But as she arrives at the snowy, lux cabin, Henry reveals some unpleasant news—his sister can’t make it.

Henry inviting three of his rich and arrogant friends in Clara’s place is less than ideal, and Aspen all but turns around and hightails it back to New York, when she finds out she has to spend her break trapped inside the same four walls as the person she loathes the most.

Baylor Frost lives up to his name. He is cold and mean, and his green eyes can pierce through you like an ice pick. Aspen is stubborn and competitive, and refuses to let Baylor know he gets under her skin. Together, they are a heated disaster. A fuse, ready to blow.

But a lot can happen in two weeks. And the longer Aspen is forced to be near Baylor, the harder it is for her to hate him...and even harder for her to ignore the way her body responds to him.

As games are played and boundaries are pushed, Aspen and Baylor’s chilly disdain for each other begins to melt, and newfound passions ignite. A calm and quiet Christmas is all Aspen wants this year, but what she gets is so much more.
