A Whiskey River Christmas

She's a princess who wants to choose her own life. He's a livery stable owner, who has given up on love. Together, Gabriella and Dirk discover a flame that even a blizzard can't quench.

As the niece of Charles III, Prince of Monaco, Gabriella's life is planned out for her, right down to whom she would marry and the company she keeps. She's a woman with everything... except the ability to make her own choices. Escaping a life of faux friends and duty, Gabriella forsakes her life of fortune and runs away to the wilds of the 1870s West, hoping for a new life. What she discovers instead is an education in the ways of the world.

Not far from town, livery stable owner Dirk Price is settling in for another long winter in Whiskey River when a mysterious young woman shows up on his doorstep. In the light of the fireside, Gabriella and Dirk find themselves unfreezing their chilly hearts and protecting each other from not only the cold, but from the evil forces closing in around them. Can they let love in, or will they turn away at a time when they need each other the most?

In the depths of winter, under the heavy weight of a blinding blizzard, return to the sleepy, snowy banks of Whiskey River, Wyoming, as Gabriella and Dirk discover that love is the greatest-and most dangerous-journey of all during the most wonderful time of the year.
