I just wanted a simple night out for my birthday, but my friends had other plans. One of them being to find someone to finally swipe my v-card. I’ve all but given up when the drummer catches my eye—and I catch his. Something ignites in me, a need I’ve never felt for anyone else.

After a heated moment in a supply closet, the fantasy shatters when I learn who he is—my best friend’s (much) older brother. That should be the end of it, we shouldn’t take it any further. But the pull I feel towards him is inevitable. When an unexpected snowstorm traps up together, we make a pact; just for the storm.

When our expiration date comes, will it be clear skies? Or will we realize we’ve been caught in something deeper than either of us expected?

Every night is the same, going through the motions here on stage. Same songs, same people, same life of trying to stay out of my father’s clutches. Except for tonight, when a little ray of sunshine catches my eye in the crowd. She’s young—far too young for me, but the way she’s looking at me has me ready to throw caution to the wind.

What I don’t expect is for her to be my baby sister’s best friend. I know I can’t do this to my sister… again. I’ve been warned, I’ve been threatened. But I can’t say no when a freak snowstorm leads Stella right to my front door. It might be freezing outside, but the heat between us is undeniable.

We agreed. Just for the storm. But it doesn’t look to be clearing up any time soon.
