WHEN THINGS SNOWBALL, CAN FROSTY FEELINGS THAW?

Lucy hasn't left the country in years. In fact, she's barely left Bristol's city limits. So, when the opportunity presents itself to join a work trip to the Swiss Alps, she's wary, especially when she learns that it will coincide with that weekend - the one that, eleven years ago, tore her world in two.

But how can she turn down an all-expense-paid trip to the snow-capped Alps? Lucy knows what Leo would say if he were still with her, and besides, she'll have her work husband, Jonno, there for emotional support.

What - or who - she didn't bank on, however, was moody (read: rude) Nate stepping in at the last minute. And what's worse, they're the only two in the group who don't ski, so they're stuck with each other . . . up the side of a mountain in the middle of a snowstorm.

With the weather closing in, an avalanche leaves them snowbound in an alpine bar with an eclectic cast of fellow refugees. But with roaring log fires and steaming mugs of glühwein (and maybe a shot or two of Jägermeister), it's a chance for Lucy and Nate to discover there might be more to one another than meets the eye.

Where will their mountainside adventure leave them when the snow finally melts?

I think I would quite like to be Lucy.  She has initially a wonderful philosophy towards her love life and has made me consider trying something similar.  And then she ends up in the Swiss Alps, on a work trip, snowed in with a colleague who clearly has hidden depths! 

There is a journey of self growth for Lucy and I loved the motley crew she was snowed in with, up a mountain.  There is a huge cast of characters, but it was Nate that I really kept wanting to know more about. 

His journey in this book is even more impressive than Lucy's and the more I got to know him, the more I was falling for him myself.  

I was never completely sure who if anyone that Lucy might end up with, and although I know who I was rooting for, there were other good options! 

I was totally gripped by this book, I loved every second of it and it is fast cementing Heidi Stephens as an author I need to keep reading everything by. 

Thank you to Headline Accent and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
