She was “just right”
The last thing Liam Daly expected was finding a real-life Goldilocks in the Colorado mountains. But after a blizzard leaves Meredith Jensen stranded, Liam’s solitude is shattered by the electrifying golden-haired beauty.
Sheltered Meredith is determined to build a new life for herself. But she’s compelled by Liam’s warm soul, still recovering from a love he tragically lost decades earlier. It’s just a matter of time before they give in to the spark between them...a spark that unexpectedly makes them parents-to-be.
Even though stand-up Liam wants to do the right thing, Meredith won’t settle for a duty-bound man. How can she convince Liam that his real-life Goldilocks is just right...forever?
“We can nix the snowman in lieu of another prize.”
“Giving up that easily?”
“There is something else, something...better, that I’d like for my prize.” It was one thing to decide the asking made sense; it was another to actually verbalize the question. “I’m pretty sure it will make me far happier than the snowman would’ve. No. Not pretty sure. Absolutely sure.”
She could still back out if she lost her courage. She hadn’t given anything away yet.
He stared down at her again, and those green and amber eyes of his darkened to a burnished moss. The change wasn’t fueled by anger or frustration or even confusion, because she saw desire looming in the depths of his gaze. As if he already knew what she was about to ask. As if he’d considered the very same thing.
Maybe he did know. Maybe he had.
“You’re trouble,” he said. “I knew it the second I saw you.”
“Yeah? Well, you’re trouble, too. But...I like it.” Oh! Where had that come from? She blinked another half-dozen times, breathed again. “I might like it.”
“Tell me, Goldi,” he said. “If I have to guess, I might guess wrong.”
It was now or never. So, now please.
“A kiss. I want you to kiss me.”

There were many ways a person could die. Before this moment, Meredith Jensen had never given much thought to how her life might come to an end.
Why would she? She had youth, good health and a rather safe existence on her side.
Other than her penchant for over-easy eggs paired with buttered toast every Sunday morning, she didn’t participate in dangerous activities. Her weekends weren’t spent skydiving or bungee jumping, she drove a Volvo S60 and not a sports car and most nights, she was tucked securely into bed with a book no later than ten. As far as her career went, until two weeks ago,
