Lena promised herself she would never need the Holloways again.
Then a five-month renovation contract offers exactly the money her struggling business needs, and the job happens to be on Holloway property in the Montana mountains.
Her first night back nearly kills her.
A storm sends her rental car off the road, gasoline fills the cabin, and the man who reaches her window is the last person Lena expected to see.
Grant Holloway.
Four years earlier, Lena stood before his family and listened as a Holloway made it clear she was considered nothing. She walked away and built a life without them.
Now Grant is everywhere.
Working together on the lodge resurrects an attraction neither successfully buried, but something about Lena's contract feels wrong. Then an anonymous warning appears among her supplies: run before you get hurt again.
The Holloway family has money, influence, and old habits of deciding other people's futures. Lena's career is already vulnerable, and someone seems determined to ensure she does not leave the mountain stronger than she arrived.
Grant says he is on her side.
Lena has trusted that once before.
The mountain may have brought them back together.
The Holloways may still tear them apart.
