Colin is really looking forward to spending Christmas with his family, and he's not going to let the blizzard that cancelled his flight stand in his way. He sets out in his car, driving carefully, but that doesn't work out for him, either. He finds himself in a ditch, freezing, with nowhere to go. Knowing he can't stay in his car, he gathers his luggage and treks to the nearest house he can find. And he's surprised to find Logan, an attractive fitness instructor, at the door. Logan invites Colin in and helps him warm up, willingly allowing him to stay until the blizzard passes. Although they start the weekend as strangers, spending time in close quarters helps them learn more about each other and become fast friends. And while it's still cold outside, it doesn't take long for things to heat up inside the house.

This is a fun and sweet story that really shines. It's not long, but the author does a great job of using every word and every page with purpose. And even though we only see Colin and Logan for a short time from beginning to end, things never feel rushed or overly constructed in their interactions. I definitely found myself wanting more from these characters. What happens next?… (more)
