Synopsis

USA TODAY BESTSELLER

From the author of The Reunion, a cozy rom-com about a writer who decamps to a Vermont lodge for work but finds herself distracted by the charming ski instructor next door.

Alix Morgan just got her big break as the ghostwriter of a memoir by Sebastian Green, a former member of the boy band True North. And when he offers her a penthouse at a luxurious resort in Vermont, she jumps at the chance to work far away from her noisy, cramped apartment.

Her career as an entertainment journalist has been building toward this dream job—after all, she used to cover True North and was one of the last people to interview former front man Jett Beckett before he disappeared. As she combs through her client’s voice memos, the specter of the missing lead singer remains, and fans are desperate to know the full story.

But Alix also has time for some fun at this glamorous resort, where she begins ski lessons with a handsome instructor named Tyler. As Alix and Tyler fall in love on the slopes, Alix’s work takes a complicated turn—and the mystery of True North’s downfall may be hers to solve.

2 stars might seem harsh because this book wasn’t bad, it was just so forgettable, and the writing felt very basic to me. The amount of times she said “his eyes were full of stars” or some other cliche line was annoying. It read like boy band fanfiction, but not in a fun way. There’s a “plot twist”......more

Goodreads review by mimi (taylor’s version) on February 18, 2025

Why can't I just love a book that I’d have died to read a couple of months ago?! For starters, I have to try falling for a man with a bun - no hate for Tyler, he's a good man, but it’s not an attractive look for me. And then, you try to gaslight me into believing that that ending is the most romantic......more

Goodreads review by Southern Lady Reads on January 20, 2025

I LOVED this book. There was a little bit of mystery behind the romance, and it was CLEAN romance!! I've kind of been in this completely accidental clean romance kick recently and loving it. I don't really need the gratuitous schmex scenes! Definitely, some tension and fade-to-black moments are pres......more

Arndt also creates distinct expressive voices for Alix and Tyler, along with various secondary characters.
