Cold Days Hot Nights

Holidays mark the passage of time in a way that synchronizes the calendar kept by the heart with the one kept by the head. Julian Keys shows us how the quest to discover a secret love restores a cynic's hope how a moment of compassion turns a thief into a hero how sympathy for the Devil can lead to a happy ending and how a multicultural celebration opens the way for even the most unlikely unions. Cold Days Hot Nights shares four tales of holidays that become turning points in life and love for people who have lost faith in themselves in each other and in romance. From Halloween to Christmas to Valentine's Day Keys' stories show how not simply the feeling of love but the willingness to risk pain to be open to the possibilities love offers can change a person's life in wonderful ways.
