My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Maddox, a grump who prefers isolating in his mountain cabin to escape Christmas, agrees to host a stranded traveler as a favor. That stranger is Ravi, who was desperately trying to get home for the birth of his goddaughter when an emergency plane landing and a severe snowstorm left him stranded. Snowbound together in the cabin, an intense attraction sparks between them. However, as Maddox worries about the inevitable heartbreak when Ravi leaves, Ravi is forced to choose between hiding away from his problems or leaving to face his painful past to secure a real future with Maddox.
I enjoyed this story overall, though Maddox definitely tested my patience at times. He was so grumpy and weighed down by his past that I found myself wondering how he even manages to hold down a job. Ravi, on the other hand, was more personable. Even while dealing with his own heavy challenges and stress, his warmth provided such a great contrast to Maddox's moody nature. The story is packed with a lot of angst, tension, and raw emotion, and the characters' feelings were always easy to understand and relate to. This was a snowed-in, opposites-attract romance that was enjoyable. This was an MM story with mature content.
