Secrets lie buried in ice...
One of them can kill her.
Home for Christmas after her long-missing mother’s body is found, nothing will keep Nora Livingstone from uncovering the truth about the cold case. Especially not Deputy Sheriff Rush Buchanan, whom she once loved and left. Even when threats become attempts on her life, Rush can’t dissuade her—but he will protect her. Because someone is determined to bury the truth…or bury Nora.
JESSICA R. PATCH lives in the mid-South, where she pens inspirational contemporary romance and romantic suspense novels. When she’s not hunched over her laptop or going on adventurous trips with willing friends in the name of research, you can find her watching way too much Netflix with her family and collecting recipes for amazing dishes she’ll probably never cook.

The only sound was the snow crunching under their feet.
Nora leaned into Rush as they walked to the cabin.
Crack!
The gunshot sprayed the snow a foot from them.
Someone had been lying in wait, Rush realized. To get her. To get them.
“Run!” When Nora obeyed his command, he ushered her behind a tree.
Another shot fired, this one splintering the bark, and he fired back. Grabbing Nora’s hand, he hauled her into the woods with him.
When they’d made it deep inside, the firing stopped.
“Now what do we do?” Nora asked, her panting breath coming out in plumes in the cold night.
Either the shooter had given up...or he was tracking them quietly. Stalking them.
“We double back to the chalet and call for backup,” he told her.
But his deputy sheriff’s mind reeled with the potential danger. With a list of potential suspects. Someone had planned this attack carefully. Could be anyone. Nora’s mother had had a slew of deadly secrets...
And now one of them was out to get Nora.
When I think about Jesus, I think about how He was born into scandal. How many people believed that a young girl who was betrothed to another man really was carrying the Son of God? I’m sure there were whispers all His life about how His mother must have “stepped out” on Joseph. Yet Joseph married her anyway—thanks to a dream from God. He loved her amidst the rumors. I wanted to write about that.
