Torn apart one Christmas years ago, only to be reunited by chance…

Christopher Booth is desperate. In order to save his parents from destitution, he travels north to a holiday house party, where if he plays his cards right, he could secure the wealthy match. But his carriage is delayed by a snowstorm, and he finds himself stuck at a country inn. Though the urgency to leave constantly pulls at him, the presence of a kitchen maid whispers for him to stay…

Eleanor Grant has been in hiding for years, and she’s not about to reveal her identity or her location, even in the face of her childhood sweetheart. It would do no good to burden him with the truth, and he obviously has places to be, with other women to woo.

But Christopher never forgot his childhood friend who disappeared years ago. So when the snow begins to clear, will he risk his family’s future for the sake of the long lost love from his past?
