His Wood Her Fire

He just wants to be alone. But she's a complication he can't ignore.

Gloria DeSoto never imagined she'd still be single at forty. With another Christmas rolling around, and the endless parade of party invites she'd have to attend alone, Gloria hatches a plan.

This year, she was going away for the holidays. Two weeks in a quiet little cabin on a mountainside away from the hustle and bustle.

And the sorry state of her love life.

But when things get a little rough for the city girl, her gorgeous, axe-wielding curmudgeon of a neighbor steps in to help. Gloria tries to thank him, but the nasty man blows her off.

Maybe some of the wood he cuts so effortlessly found its way up Bo Dubois' behind.

It's the only explanation for the man's rude behavior. But there's something about him she can't forget.

Can Gloria change the mountain man's mind? Or was this just another bad judgement call?
