Born in Ice

the long version

When the harsh storms of winter descended upon western Ireland the locals stayed indoors--and visitors stayed away. Brianna Concannon's bed-and-breakfast became a cold and empty place. But that was fine with Brianna. She enjoyed the peace and quiet, even when the icy winds howled at her window. But this year she's expecting an unusual guest... mystery writer Grayson Thane from America, who needs a quiet place to stay while writing his next book. Although, he plans to spend the cold winter alone, Grayson is charmed by Brianna-but as a restless wanderer with a painful past, he is most comfortable alone. But sometimes fate has a plan of its own. Sometimes, fire can be born in ice....
