"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful holiday short story. The characters were so likeable and very appealing and hawt together. Plot was perfection and world building was excellent and expertly drawn. Look forward to more. Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend. Grab a copy, kick back and enjoy!" -ARC Reviewer

Roderick
Great, my parents are hosting Thanksgiving this year, a three day event that always feels like it'll never end.
A house full of people I have to mingle with is not my idea of a holiday.
I moved to the mountains to escape this sort of thing, I'd rather be lonely.
Hang on, a storm's got everyone stranded at the airport?
It's a Thanksgiving miracle!
Except, why is the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on in my parents' bathtub?
I thought a little company didn't sound so bad until I found out she's an entitled city girl with an attitude.
So why can't I get her off my mind?

I need this holiday weekend, it's all that's kept me going through the last few weeks.
Passed over for promotions, paid less than my colleagues, trapped in a role I'm too good at to leave.
To be honest, I'm beginning to doubt if this life I've worked so hard for is the kind of life I want.
When a mountain of a man bursts in on me, dashing all my dreams of the relaxing weekend full of food and fun, I'm not sure how I'm going to make it through.
But maybe he's exactly what I need in my life.
Maybe this weekend will be better than I ever could have imagined.
