Quickie - Snowbound Serenade

A brutal blizzard derails Antonio’s plans, stranding the brooding guitarist and his battered Fiat in the icy grip of the Dolomites. Bound for a sultry gig in Paris, he’s forced to seek refuge in San Martino’s quaint Albergo della Luna—where Veronica, a restless beauty with dark curls and hazel eyes, greets him with a smile that thaws the chill. She’s never left her sleepy village, but her simmering dreams ignite when Antonio’s gravelly voice and deft fingers tease more than just his guitar strings.

As she serves him in the hotel’s cozy restaurant, their flirtation flares into a firelit night of reckless passion—his lips on her skin, her moans echoing off flour-dusted sacks in a storeroom tryst. The storm traps them, but it’s their heat that binds them, awakening desires neither expected. At dawn, a tender goodbye and a note spark a promise of more—leaving them both forever changed.
