Eight months and counting...

The last few weeks of her pregnancy seem interminable to Quinn Santori. Which is why she planned this pleasant diversion - a fall afternoon with her two young companions. Never in her wildest dreams did she think they'd be trapped by a snowstorm in an isolated mountain cabin. Especially a cabin already inhabited - by a man toting a gun. They make an odd foursome - Quinn, the two little girls in her charge and ex-con Whit Sloane. And chances are their numbers will increase to five before the snow melts.
