Steam, soot, and a second chance at safety... Can Dora find her way home this Christmas?
Engineer Dora is more comfortable with a wrench than a camera. A former teen model, she traded the runway for fixing steam trains on a Heritage Railway and now she's built a life protected by iron-clad boundaries. She finally feels safe - until the Christmas Express brings the threat of bankruptcy and a donor who doesn't understand the word "no."
Adam swapped his city suit for farm overalls to save his family's struggling estate, now he's drowning in debt and his father's disapproval. He's admired the prickly and distant Dora from afar for years, but she's made it clear she's not interested.
When a winter storm crashes a tree through Dora's roof, she's forced to move into Adam's farmhouse. Under the same roof, the ice begins to thaw. Adam realizes the "cold" engineer is actually a woman healing from a fractured past and Dora dares to hope that Adam is a man who will truly respect her space.
But when a festive celebration turns into a nightmare, Dora assumes history will repeat itself and retreats into her shell.
With the farm facing ruin and the railway on the brink of closure, Dora and Adam must decide: will they retreat to their separate bunkers, or can they move beyond their past hurts to stand together?
This closed-door (low spice) cosy romance is a standalone novel and is ideal for fans of Milly Johnson or Jessica Redland.
