What's a woman to do when trapped in a storm with a handsome scoundrel?

Weary from dodging wandering hands, Yvette Valiant escapes yet another scandalous house party and her brother's dubious protection, fleeing into a snowy landscape, intent on returning home to Bath for Christmas. One stranded coach later, she's rescued by the biggest rogue of them all-her brother's best friend.

A scoundrel he may be, but even Luc Ayles is capable of love. What else would have him chasing a woman who seemingly detests the very sight of him? When Yvette foolishly puts her safety and reputation in jeopardy, Luc rushes to her aid, despite knowing his affection is the last gift Yvette could ever want for Christmas.

Then again, it's the season of giving...and if Yvette would only give him her heart, it could be the happiest holiday ever.
