Heās her knight in shining armor. Only sheās no damsel in distress.
Wyatt
Iām a self-made billionaire with a soft spot for damsels in distress, so when I move to the quirky lakeside community of Summerdale, I immediately zero in on the woman I most want toā¦ahem, rescue. Only the stubborn woman refuses to cooperate.Sydney
When Satan, aka Wyatt Winters, moves to town, I do my best to be welcoming. After all, Iām the owner of the historic restaurant and bar that he keeps showing up at, despite criticizing nearly everything about it. Deep breath. I mightāve lost my cool and made a rude gesture in his direction. And told him off. How was I to know he was considering investing in my place?Did I mention Iām in debt up to my eyeballs and every bank has turned me down?
Still, thereās not a snowballās chance in hell Iād ever work with him. Or admit he fires me up in every way.
And then a snowstorm traps us together andā
Iām melting.
This romantic comedy stands alone with a swoonworthy happy-ever-after! No cliffhangers.

EXCERPT:
Sydney
Wyatt catches my eye. āAppetizers are good.ā
Pleased that he finally said something positive about my place, I close the distance, stopping at his table. āGlad youāre enjoying them.ā
He leans back in his chair. āHave you ever thought of upgrading the dinner menu?ā
My temper flares, but I manage to keep a civil tone. āNo. Locals love it.ā
āNot saying itās bad, just unoriginal. I mean, every meal comes with either French fries or baked potato. A new chef might bring some life to the place. Isnāt that what tonightās fundraiserās all about? Keeping this place open?ā He taps the table. āWith the right management, a better chef, this place has potential.ā
I manage this place, and the chef is a family friend. I bare my teeth. āSeems you know a lot about the restaurant business.ā
āNot at all. I just appreciate a good one.ā
I jam my hands on my hips and glare at him. Obviously he thinks weāre a bad one! Iām so furious I canāt even speak.
He cocks his head. āCindy, are you cross with me?ā
āWho the hell do you think you are?ā I snap. āComing in here and insulting my place left and right! If you donāt like it, donāt come back.ā
He arches a brow. āSince you own the place, maybe we could talk about some serious improvements. You donāt know what you donāt know, am I right?ā
I bristle. āThis place was my great-grandfatherās, passed down the generations, and now itās mine.ā I leave out that Drew is the one who actually inherited it and declared it a lost cause because of the debt dragging it down. I took it over rather than let him sell it. āItās an institution in this town, and weāre doing just fine without your city snark. How dare you walk in here and spew your judgment over all of us!ā
He smirks. āI donāt recall spewing.ā
My heartbeat roars in my ears, anger clouding all good reason. I desperately want to smack that smirk off his face.
He gestures to his ale, which he barely touched. āI didnāt like this one. Could I get one of those local Connecticut ales you mentioned?ā
I stare at his glass of ale. I want to throw it in his face and watch his shock as it drips down his beard, fancy sport coat, and dress shirt.
He chuckles. āThatās an evil look in your eye, Cindy. Youāre thinking about dumping this drink on my head, arenāt you?ā
How did he know? āNot at all,ā I lie.
He leans close and smirks. āI dare you.ā
