Snowbound with the Highlander

By: MacDonald, Skye

A bookshop. A banker. A winter that changes everything.

Hazel Muir is done with empty promises and dead-end careers. She wants something real - a place where stories belong. In the middle of a Scottish winter, she opens Once Upon a Shelf, a tiny bookshop in Glencoe meant to be more than a business. It's a refuge. A light in the dark.

But without a loan, her dream won't survive.

William Cairns believes in numbers, not hope. Sent to assess Hazel's application, the banker's verdict is swift and final. Too risky. Too idealistic. Bound to fail.

Then a snowstorm traps him in Glencoe.

Stranded in the village - and far too close to Hazel - William finds himself drawn into candlelit evenings, old books, and long winter nights. Something in him begins to thaw. Something he thought he'd buried for good.

The rejection letter is already written.
But can a man who lives by control learn to believe in what can't be calculated?

A cosy, sensual Highland romance about risking everything - and finding love where you least expect it.
