Ten years ago, Piper Bellini and Noah Drake were the Echo Lake couple that everyone knew would be together forever. Then Noah landed a high-adventure travel job that took him flying across oceans, and Piper couldnโt see herself fitting into that lifestyle โฆ or wanting to. Heโs spent the past decade risking life and limb with every trip while sheโs built a quiet life in Echo Lake, and both of them know theyโre better off apart.
When Noah returns to Echo Lake on a business trip, he tries to convince himself he hasnโt missed her all this time, but when a winter storm forces them to spend a night holed up together in a roadside diner, itโs clear thereโs still a flame simmering between them that neither can ignore. Noah realizes heโs been handed a second chance, and he intends to make all of Piperโs Christmas wishes come true.
