When high-powered attorney Heath Parker finds himself in debt to the Mafia, he plans his wife’s kidnapping, hoping her tragic death will clear his slate while simultaneously making him a very wealthy man. Leo was not a criminal, but he’d agreed to the task. The fact was, Allison Parker’s husband owed the exact same people that Leo’s father did. The assignment was the only way to keep his family safe; he had no choice. If he failed, it would mean death for all of them, including his mother and little sister. He wasn’t doing it for family honor; he was doing it for their survival.Disposing of a middle-aged, spoiled, and miserable woman would save four lives. And the way he looked at it, he was probably doing her a favor.But what was supposed to be a quick and cold-hearted transaction changes when a snowstorm entraps them together, captor and hostage, secluded for months from the outside world. Forced into close quarters, their isolation breeds unexpected and mutual desire over time. At some point, she becomes worth the risk, worth saving. As Leo watches snow fall relentlessly outside the cabin window, he knows he can’t kill her. But he doesn’t know how to save her either. He doesn’t know how to save any of them.
