Successful corporate attorney Hunter Barrington has one semester to prove himself at his alma mater. He’s put to the test when the sultry beauty who shared his bed at a Utah ski resort reappears in his life. A secret romance with his student could cost Hunter his academic future—especially when a scheming colleague sets her sights on the eligible lawyer. Will Hunter and Chey be able to avoid scandal and attain their dreams without sacrificing their passion?
“Is this how you imagined your liberating solo vacation would turn out?”
“Not at all.”
“Me neither.” Hunter sniffed out a chuckle. “This is actually better than I thought it would be.”
Chey craned her neck, tossing Hunter a baffled look.
“I never thought I’d end up with a beautiful woman in my arms as we sat in front of a fireplace with a view of mountains beckoning at my side.”
Chey’s cheeks burned. She turned back toward the fire and let her head settle in the center of Hunter’s chest. No words were necessary. Hunter was right. Despite all that had gone wrong, she could have never called this and was grateful that she didn’t have to endure this alone. What would she have done had Hunter made his flight home on the first day?
“You smell amazing.” Hunter’s voice had reduced to a husky whisper.
“Thank you.” Chey smiled but didn’t turn around. “It’s one of my creations.” If Hunter kept it up, they would no longer need the fireplace for heat.
“You made that?”
“Yep.”
“That’s some talent.” She felt Hunter nod.
“You don’t smell so bad yourself,” Chey teased.
“Thanks!” Silence. Then laughter.
As the laughter subsided, Chey noticed how Hunter instinctively rubbed her arm. His touch alone was enough to keep her warm.

Her mind is on her career, not a relationship—until she crosses paths with Hunter. Chey may not think she’s ready to let another man into her life, but for some reason, she can’t keep her mind off Hunter. When they finally connect it’s explosive, but then people and circumstances force them apart. Will they be able find their way back to each other? Together they will learn a valuable lesson in love.
