After abruptly calling off her wedding to her Silicon Valley business partner, tech executive Summer Avila stumbles upon a long-forgotten reservation for a rustic cabin nestled in the snowy mountains and decides to take it, even if it means she'll be alone on Christmas Eve.
But her plans take an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with rugged mountain guide and lodge manager Forrest Peters who invites her to join him and his family for Christmas Eve dinner. His world of family values and nature is just the distraction she needs, a stark contrast to the tech-driven world Summer is used to yet no longer makes her happy.
For Forrest, Summer's arrival stirs up emotions he's long buried, forcing him to confront his fears of opening up his heart, even if it's to someone who doesn't belong in his world.
But just when Summer’s ready to explore the possibilities of life at the lodge, a threat to her position in her company forces her to focus on protecting her life’s work and legacy.
Will she return to her planned, predictable life in the boardroom or will she dare to embrace the uncertainties of new love in the backwoods? And can Forrest let go of his guarded past to take a chance on a future with someone so different, yet so right?
The Reluctant Fiancee is a sweet holiday romance and is the second book in the Holiday Engagement series that began with The Replacement Fiance.
