Publisher's Synopsis
Two years ago, horse trainer Ty Evans impulsively stole a kiss under the mistletoe from his best friend, actress Shannon O'Neil, and unearthed a physical chemistry neither knew existed, but through an unspoken agreement, it was never mention again. Since then, Shannon has become a starlet of the Seattle theatre scene, and her career is set to rocket into the stratosphere with an offer for a supporting role in a movie. A brush with the darker side of fame ends her relationship with her longtime boyfriend. Heartbroken and doubting whether or not she should continue on a career path she loves, Shannon heads to visit her brother and regroup in the tranquil Northstar Valley. Shannon isn't the only one who's found success. Ty's horse-training business is gathering acclaim, pulling him farther from her and pushing the potential ignited by that kiss every further from reach. He hasn't forgotten it, but it's starting to look like that kiss will be the only he ever gets. Then Shannon shows up in Northstar, newly single and in desperate need of her friend. This might be the chance Ty's been waiting for-an opportunity to convince Shannon that their kiss under the mistletoe was just the beginning of something much greater.
