A broke single mom can hardly believe her fortune when she wins an all-expenses-paid autumn getaway to a luxury mountain art retreat. The peaceful cabin and creative workshops promise the perfect escape from her daily struggles. Then Charlie arrives uninvited. He's her boss's son, the whirlwind Creative Director who makes her work life miserable with his Kickstarter obsessions and seemingly perfect existence. She wants to flee, but Charlie begs for her help, and she can't risk losing her job. Two years of buried attraction surface as they navigate experimental art classes and explore the charming mountain town together. What starts as fake dating to solve Charlie's problems becomes real feelings she never expected. But Charlie harbors a secret that threatens to destroy everything they're building. This steamy romantic comedy from the Cozy Creek Collection delivers small-town charm and workplace enemies-to-lovers heat.
