For two former childhood friends, a blustery winter storm stirs some frosty—and scorching—memories in a delightfully sexy short story by #1 New York Times bestselling author Ali Hazelwood.

All newly minted pediatrician Jamie Malek wants is to borrow a roasting pan for Christmas dinner. Unfortunately, that requires her to interact with Marc—her best friend’s troublemaking brother, who’s now a tech billionaire. He’s the one who got away. She’s the one who broke his heart. Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

If there is one thing that Ali Hazelwood is good at, it's enemies to lovers. Her characters are always infuriating and so very compelling. At least it's not misunderstanding but fear of rejection this time? But, I am so glad that they figured it out. And all for a copper roasting pan, which like....I get it. Those things are nice!
