In a race against time, love may be their only lifeline.
Desire surges. Danger lurks.
Passion ignites. A killer looms.

Gordon Mackenzie, the powerful and ruthless CEO of SynthoSoft, doesn't do relationships or virgins.

So when Isadora Santos walks into his line of vision with a vivacity and spirit as bright as the sun, he's taken aback by his sudden desire for her.

Isadora is thrilled by her unexpected attraction to Gordon. For the first time in her twenty-four years, she's found a man she wants to be with.

Their irresistible attraction takes an unexpected turn when they find themselves caught in a snowstorm at the Golden Valley resort during Gordon's company holiday party. As the snow falls, Gordon starts to believe he can fall in love again.

But amidst the warmth of their blossoming love, a chilling danger lurks. As the guests at the resort start to die under mysterious circumstances, Gordon and Isadora must race against time to unmask the murderer before Isadora becomes the next victim.

Caught between love and a looming threat, Gordon and Isadora's bond is put to the ultimate test as they fight to survive and uncover the truth behind the deadly events unfolding around them.
