She wasn’t certain what she was getting herself into. However, she was very certain that the simple act of holding Marshall’s hand as they walked sent her pulse racing. Every feeling that had lain slightly dormant for the past ten years flared to life when their hands clasped together.

The kiss two days before had awakened lust, but the mere feel of his hand in hers set everything they’d had rushing back to her. Trying to run away from Marshall, to ignore everything for the past years had been the stupidest thing she’d ever tried.

And had you not been so determined to end it to try things with Adam, who knows how long it would have continued. You’re where you belong. Tell him.

“Marshall.” She cleared her throat as he held open the lodge door for her.

Her expression must have been terrible because the smile plummeted off Marshall’s face as he turned to look at her. “Whatever you’re going to say, Anna, just leave it for today. It’s not the time for difficult conversations or life changing moments. I just want us to have fun today.” His voice had the smallest hint of a tremble as he spoke.

Pressing her lips together, she felt the tension snake up to her head. She wasn’t certain if she should abide by what he wanted or tell him what she feeling, especially since she was fairly certain they would have a much better time if he did know.

“Please, Anna,” he repeated, pleading this time.

Blowing out a breath, she nodded slowly. It felt wrong not to tell him what she’d decided. He probably just thought anything good she told him was simply because she was wrapped up in the Christmas season and it would vanish with the holidays.

“Okay. So, where do we get those sleds?”

A small, forced smile, returned to his face. “I’ll grab them. You stay here.”

With that, he left her in a fairly empty lodge, only to say a few Merry Christmases as people passed her to grab a mug of something warm.

Reaching for her phone, she held it, staring at the black face and wondering if she shouldn’t try calling Adam again. Pulling up his number, she put the phone to her ear as she watched Marshall duck inside a door behind the front desk.

Come on, Adam. I can’t believe I’m trying to break up with someone on Christmas. I’m going to hell for this, I just know it. Her foot was lightly tapping on the plush carpet as the phone rang and rang.

“Hello, you’ve reached Adam Sensard. I’m unavailable—”

Jerking the phone from her ear, she jabbed her finger over the end call icon and dropped it into the pocket of the ridiculously large snowsuit. She resisted the urge to growl in frustration. Nothing was going as it should, and this had to be the universe punishing her for coming up the mountain with one intention but having an entirely different one once she’d arrived.

Don’t focus on it. You can still talk to Marshall
