DON’T LET HIM DIE! The last words Brody Crawford hears before his twin brother slips from his grasp, plummeting to his death—his pregnant wife’s screams slicing through the frozen air. One year later, Brody is a man haunted. Grief has turned to guilt, and guilt to exile. He’s cut himself off from everyone—his friends, his parents, and most of all, Lilliana. His brother’s widow. The woman he’s secretly loved for as long as he can remember. But when his once-thriving adventure tourism business edges toward foreclosure, Lilliana, the town’s bank officer, makes him an offer. Come home for Christmas, attend the New Year’s Eve party in his brother’s honor, and she’ll help him secure the loan he desperately needs. She thinks he’s been hiding from financial ruin. What she doesn’t know is that Brody has been hiding from her. Because facing Lilliana means facing the unbearable truth. He was the one who couldn’t save her husband. And now, the only woman he’s ever loved is the one woman he can never have. But in the snowbound nights of Kodiak Gorge, where emotions burn as hot as the fires crackling in winter cabins, some truths refuse to stay buried.
