"Security and rescue specialist Stella Silverstone returns homr for the holidays to care for her ailing grandmother--and finds herself the target of a killer. Only the unexpected arrival of the rescue-team leader temporarily pulls her from the crosshairs. Once, Stella hoped Chance Miller would become more than her boss. But the widow's tragic past keeps her from giving him her heart--or embracing the Christmas season. Now with danger lurking in every corner of the grandmother's old Victorian home and family secrets hiding in the shadows, Stella is safe nowhere but with Chance. Only he can show her the joys of Christmas and the beauty of love if he can keep her alive."--Page [4] cover.
