"Patrick Foley is a haunted man. After losing his family in a brutal Commanche raid, he drifts from town to town seeking justice and revenge. His mission--to track down the killers--has hardened his heart against all men, good or bad. But his icy resolve begins to melt when he arrives in the small Texas town of Christmas Creek--along with a massive winter storm that traps him there with a good woman, her little boy, and some very bad men . . . Texans call it a Blue Norther. A fast-moving onslaught of heavy sleet and snow, it brings Foley's search to a halt, but also gives him a chance to warm up with the charming young widow who runs the general store. Her name is Lovejoy Peace. She has a friendly smile, a six-year-old son--and a terrible problem with mean-spirited cowboys stealing supplies from her store. Being a gentleman, Foley raises his gun to defend the widow and stop the thieving snakes. But the battle is far from over . . . The storm is getting worse. The cowboy gang is snowbound, too--and they're ready for a rematch. If Foley, the widow and her son can survive the night, it'll be a Christmas miracle . . ."-- Penguinrandomhouse.com. 20241115.
