After a brief encounter 6 years earlier circumstances have Arlo jumping into action to help Rudolf through the fallout of a bad performance. By help I mean Arlo “borrowing” Rudolph and taking him to a secluded cabin to stop him spiralling further. As there is only one bed and a blizzard to keep them snowed in for days, it’s not long before the sweet and acerbic Rudolph doesn’t really mind the situation he has found himself in as the chemistry intensifies between him and Arlo. Leading to some steamy moments balanced with some sweet tender times. The real world soon intrudes before too long but once Rudolph gets some work related issues sorted he’s soon back in the cabin with Arlo moving towards their HEA. 

This is a wonderful Christmas story filled with all the trope goodness and two wonderfully likeable main characters who banter with and snark at each other. It felt like I never stopped smiling whilst I was reading this throughly enjoyable and entertaining book. Highly recommended!
