★★★★☆ Why do I love ‘stuck-in-the-snow-together’ stories so much? I guess I have a not-so-secret fantasy about getting snowbound with a brooding billionaire. Anyway, this one worked for me.
Cesar’s brother has a mystery project and Cesar’s hoping it doesn’t include a romantic relationship with designer, Jude. He finds her way too attractive, despite her ever-present blue jeans. She sleeps in baggy tee-shirts, he slumbers in the nude. He’s also a city dweller; she loves gardening in the countryside. Luckily Mother Nature’s elements and his “silly car” (it’s a classic Bentley!) took care of the set-up to passion for these two total opposites – at the mercy of the weather – in a cozy little English cottage.
Cue the Big Misunderstanding.
But wait! Mother Nature intervenes again . . . something is going to arrive. . . nine months after that fateful snowstorm!
