Lexa Harvey's winter sports holiday in the Swiss Alps is all she had hoped for:
crisp mountain air, the trill of skiing, and the company of her devoted fiancé,
detective Connal Douglas.

But Lexa had reckoned without the disconcerting presence of the enigmatic,
darkly handsome Nicolas Card, Both are experience skiers in a party of beginners
and are drawn together by the lure of the highest peaks. Against her will Lexa finds
herself falling helplessly in love with the mysterious stranger, and he with her. Before
the end of the holiday course Lexa's life has been irrevocably altered.
