This is a cute and festive novella set in Ontario's beautiful Muskoka country that centres around two med students who are driving home together for Christmas holidays. Meera and Owen have some baggage between them but Mother Nature decides to play matchmaker and the duo gets snowed in and need to stay at a remote and quirky B&B to wait out the storm.
The story includes some of my favourite romance tropes - forced proximity, one bed, enemies to lovers - and a quirky and lovable 'Mrs. Roper mumu wearing' innkeeper, hearty bevvies to thaw the ice between Meera and Owen and a psychotic feline to balance things out.
Short and sweet, this heartwarming 68 page ebook is a fun and festive way to jump into the holiday spirit. I am eager to see what else Mia Denson, the nom de plume of a Canadian writing duo, has coming next!

Book Description from GoodReads: On a frigid Christmas Eve, med student Meera faces her worst carpooling back to Toronto with her arrogant, know-it-all rival, Owen. After a grueling month-long internship at the Northern Ontario School of Medicine, the last thing she needs is him mansplaining from the driver’s seat. But when a fierce blizzard forces them off the road and into a quirky bed and breakfast, the only available room is the violently pink attic – complete with one bed and just enough space for Owen’s oversized ego.
Snowed in, missing their families, and constantly at each other’s throats, Meera and Owen are ready to snap – until the B&B’s quirky charm and a few dangerously strong cocktails begin to thaw the ice between them. As sparks fly and tension gives way to undeniable chemistry, Meera must confront her feelings for the one person she thought she despised. Can their unexpected connection survive the return to their cutthroat med school life?
In this heartfelt holiday rom-com, two sworn enemies discover there’s a fine line between rivalry and romance – and that sometimes love is just one snowstorm away.
