Where there's smoke, there's trouble.

Tempest Sky has forgotten how to stop running, but when her RV breaks down on the way to a huge Winter Craft Show, she has no choice. Repairs require cash. Getting it means setting up shop on the spot to sell her hand-blown glass.

It's not too surprising that one of Whispering Cove's finest has a problem with that. Behind the sexy cop's sizzling scrutiny, the truth is loud and clear. "Her kind" isn't welcome here.

Officer Leo Caan can smell trouble a mile away, and it's rolling off Miss Sky like the smoke from her RV's blown engine. The crowds gathering around her impromptu studio are a public nuisance. Privately, her sassy, bold sexiness is an uncomfortable surprise. If he didn't know better, he could swear he's attracted to the woman.

Yet every time they meet—and clash—it's like water on hot glass. Pure steam. And it's a clear signal for the town grandfathers to gear up for a little holiday matchmaking…

Warning: Get ready for an explosion of emotions between a by-the-book police officer and a secretive runaway masquerading as a gothic chick. They might be at odds, but that doesn't stop the sparks of their fiery passion from leading them down the same sensual path.
