If one fairytale ends badly...can a new one begin?

When Taylor Frost’s boss flies him across the country to prep for her daughter’s sweet sixteen at the Storybook Endings Resort, the solo mission is well within his wheelhouse. Taylor is excellent at his job – except, he’s probably not supposed to flirt with the resort’s mountain man of a manager, Ethan Golding.
