Twelve years ago, they shared one magical moonlit night.
Then Babs disappeared.
Twelve years later, they collide like stars.
Babs has come to Switzerland with one goal: save the faltering walking-tour business she’s poured her heart into. Her plans do not include chasing a young sandwich thief through a picturesque Swiss village—and running straight into Will Barone, the man she’s never quite forgotten.
Will was once an astronomy student with dreams as wide as space. Now he’s a widowed father running a café and museum, hoping to buy the property from its retiring owner and pay for his daughter’s boarding school—a last-ditch attempt to rein in his increasingly risk-taking child.
And Babs orbiting back into his life? That stirs up every feeling he thought he’d left behind for the fairy-dust girl he awakened to find gone, leaving him with nothing but yearning—and that hysterical faux glass slipper.
As they bid for the same café/museum property, Babs and Will should be adversaries. And they are—until a third bid from Babs’s longtime archnemesis and the café/museum owner’s slimy son convinces them that teaming up is their only hope of winning—and protecting everything they’ve worked for.
It takes a freak Thanksgiving snowstorm and a cozy cottage with only one bed to make them wonder whether there’s room in their carefully laid plans for more.
But when the storm clears, will the gravity pulling them together be strong enough to keep their worlds from spinning apart?
