Hunting guide and outdoor enthusiast garth gunderson has been in love with candice since the first time he laid eyes on her six years ago. it seems like nothing he does will ever penetrate her disdain for his career choices. finding her stranded in the woods during a snowstorm might just be the break he needs. candice flint, eco-warrior extraordinaire, wants nothing more than to have people treat the earth with respect. she's passionate about two things: protecting the planet and avoiding her unwanted attraction to garth. when mother earth strands them together, she's stuck with an injured garth for days on end. it's going to test her patience, her ability to cope with disasters, and her heart's resolve. can he convince her their views are closer than she thinks before she writes him off entirely? can she resist his charms while getting him back to safety, or will she have to finally admit that he's the man her heart's been yearning for?
