Will a little Christmas magic melt her icy heart? ❄️🤍✨Cosy up this winter with the perfect snowy read!Holly Westward has never loved her family’s annual ski trip, but she’s never dared skip it either. With her parents’ sky-high expectations and a lifetime of being overshadowed by her brothers, Holly’s learned to keep her heart firmly on ice.

He’s a single dad with a smile that could melt the snowdrifts, and before she knows it, Holly’s confessing more than she ever intended: about her difficult family, her dislike of kids, and how skating, not skiing, has always been her secret joy. When Oliver teases her about it, she drags him out to the frozen lake to prove it, only to realise she’s skating dangerously close to falling for him.When heavy snowfall and a broken-down car leave Holly stuck in Magnolia Springs for the holidays, she discovers that the town, and Oliver, might just be the home she’s been searching for all along.
