“Listen, princess.” I lift her chin toward mine, meeting this gorgeous big blue eyes. “I’m not sure if you noticed, but we’re stranded together in the middle of fucking nowhere, with only each other to count on. You can fight me all you want, but there’s one thing you need to understand. I’m going to protect you. I’m going to take care of you. And in case you haven’t noticed, I’m six-foot-four, and probably have a hundred pounds on you. My body is going to produce a lot more heat than yours. Now calm the fuck down, and let me get you warm. Got it, sweetheart?” Her fighting stops immediately.

 

 

She nods, coyly, blinking those baby blues at me, all of her fight disappearing. “Got it.” Her voice is small, and I suddenly feel like a dick.

 

 

“Good. Glad we’re on the same page.” I tug her body closer so we’re pressed tightly together, and I hold her to my chest, wrapping her in my arms. A contented little sigh escapes her lips. The top of her head doesn’t even reach my chin. She packs a lot of sass for such a small thing. I inhale, and breathe in the scent of her shampoo. The smell of vanilla and lavender fill my nose. Damn, who knew that combination could be so perfect? It’s intoxicating and I can feel my body slowly start to react to the smell and the images my mind starts to produce. The way her slight curves mold to my body serves to warm me up pretty damn quick.

 

 

 

Sierra and Bentley really do not get along. They are making their way to their parent's wedding. Her mom is very excited to marry his dad.

Only one problem with this trip. They end up stranded in a snowstorm with only one another to keep warm. They actually end up working together and getting to know each other better.

Sierra had though of him as a dog, since his playboy ways seemed never ending. He has always been attracted to her and not acknowledged it. Now that he has, can he really act on it?

Adding to the stress is the fact they wanted to be at the wedding, and will miss it due to these unfortunate circumstances. They do need to keep warm, so....maybe it is okay just this once to act on their attraction?

Really quick and simple story about hidden feelings and simple forbidden love and lust. I found the banter charming and even though the end seemed a little rushed, I was pleased that this nice and fast read has a lot in it to entertain.
