Description
[Entry for the Once Upon A December, @BadassReads Winter Prompt - Unedited - word count: 5k] Growing up with an abusive mother, Elara hated everything in and about Everwood - a small village where everyone avoided her loud and rebellious younger self like the plague. When Elara finally left, she vowed never to come back...until her mother finally bit the dust and she had to return to sell everything off before resuming her busy life. What she didn't expect, however, was colliding with a soft soul she'd never paid attention to before but was now a danger to her well-protected (neglected) heart. He set her frozen heart aflame, searing his way into every crevice of her being with his gentle touches and soothing passion. Join Elara's journey through the frozen flames of burning passion where wintry confessions promise an eternity of passionate seasons.
