Material witness Mandi Foster is running. And for good reason—if she testifies her family will pay the ultimate price. With no choice but to hide until the trial is over, she finds an isolated cabin to ride out Christmas alone—except she isn't alone. A mysterious stranger follows her through a treacherous winter storm into the Blue Ridge Mountains, and then saves her from a potentially fatal accident. But as coincidences pile up, Mandi suspects her handsome rescuer is harboring dangerous secrets. Security Specialist Rylan Copeland is hunting.

But as he catches up to Mandi, danger comes in ways he hadn't anticipated. Will he convince her to testify in time? Or will another killer get away with murder?
