Just like we used to do together every Christmas Eve.</p><p>I thought I lost Clara all those years ago. We were young hopelessly in love our heads full of dreams for the future. I broke it off when I was injured. I didn't want her to see me like this - damaged broken.</p><p>But I never stopped loving her.</p><p> </p><p><strong><u>Clara</u></strong></p><p>I thought he was a bear at first. Big burly with a bushy beard and a scowl that would frighten off anyone who dared to look his way.</p><p>Russell Russ McFarland. The man I had been so sure I would marry. Until it fell apart and he dumped me.</p><p>I'm torn between relief at seeing him again and hating his guts after breaking my heart leaving me to pick up the pieces.</p><p>When a snowstorm forces Russell and I into the close quarters of his ranger's cabin we soon find out that our feelings for each other are still burning hot.</p><p>Can we make up for lost time and pick up where we left off?
