Love in Little Switzerland: A Holiday Romance Wrapped in the Charm of New Glarus

Lucy Bennett has always been good at creating order. Her life, work, and relationships run on plans, color coding, and perfectly logical choices. That stability disappears one December night when she walks out of her engagement party, drives into a blizzard, and lands in the small Swiss inspired village of New Glarus.Her car gives up. The roads close. The storm leaves her no option but to stay. She finds shelter at The Alpine, a cozy wine bar with more warmth than she's prepared for. Cole Hartmann, the grumpy woodworker who helps pull her out of the snow, is equal parts steady, frustrating, and unexpectedly attractive. Their banter turns into a spark she doesn't know what to do with, especially when he keeps showing up at exactly the right moments.While helping the village prepare for its annual Christkindli Market, Lucy settles into a rhythm she didn't expect. She feels useful again. She laughs more than she planned to. She notices Cole far more than is practical for someone who is only supposed to be passing through.When the storm lifts, Lucy is left with a choice she didn't see coming. She can return to the life she was trying so hard to keep together, or she can stay in the place where everything broke apart and somehow started to make more sense, including the man who complicates her plans in all the best ways.
