A professional athlete. A Hollywood director. Neither expected their love story to start on the set of a Christmas movie.
When director Landon Winslow arrives in Pine Ridge to shoot a holiday film in the middle of summer, he sees the town as nothing more than a backdrop for his vision.
Hockey star August Reeve, home for the off-season, sees Pine Ridge as something else entirely—his family’s legacy, and a community worth fighting for.
Landon’s controlling perfectionism clashes with August’s fierce protectiveness. But when they’re forced to collaborate on the film’s hockey scenes, sparks fly—and not just on the ice.
With Pine Ridge transformed into a winter wonderland, August and Landon fall into a romance as magical as the movies. But with filming coming to an end and developers threatening August’s hometown, they’ll have to decide what—and who—they’re willing to fight for.
