Morgan can’t believe his luck when his car breaks down when he leaves work in the middle of a snow storm, he returns to the lodge and discovers he isn’t the only one snowed in, his boss Sam is still there, his straight sexy boss. Sam decided to stay at the lodge and is surprised when a half frozen Morgan returns, taking care of Morgan is the only thing he can do even if it teases him with what he can’t have, sharing their painful pasts reveals the truth and they both act on their attraction.

Hmmm what to say, I thought this book was great for the setting and I loved how both men were lusting after the other with no idea of the mutual lust. Morgan and Sam have both had painful pasts which draw them closer when they share them; each has been betrayed by a partner which has had a long term effect. They have worked together for a couple of years but neither of them knows the other is gay, getting snowed in opens up the opportunity for them to explore their attraction.

I really did find this story to be a cute love story of two men who have both been burnt in the past, both their stories are heart-breaking in their own way and it shows the strength of character that both men have. They make a cute couple and are very hot together once they finally clear up that neither of them are straight, and there isn’t any real angst except for their background stories. I liked that they knew each other for some time but must admit I was surprised at how quickly they both acted when they discovered the other man was gay… but I really can’t complain because they were hot!

So if you love snowed in stories, hot men secretly lusting after each other, sad background stories, strong characters and a very happy ending then this book is for you.
