Where ancient legends sleep beneath Alpine snow and passion melts the coldest hearts

High in the frozen peaks of the Swiss Alps lies a treasure lost to time, the legendary Horn of the Iceman, a mystical artifact believed to hold the power of ancient Alpine shamans and hidden within the glacier's icy embrace for over five thousand years.

Marcel Zimmermann, a savvy Swiss mountaineer whose intimate knowledge of the Alps' deadliest peaks has made him a legend among climbers, knows every crevasse and avalanche zone in these treacherous mountains. When cryptic archaeological evidence surfaces pointing to the Horn's location, he finds himself reluctantly partnered with Dr. Céleste Dubois, a spirited French historian whose expertise in prehistoric Alpine cultures is matched only by her complete lack of mountaineering experience.

Their perilous expedition: locate the Horn of the Iceman before ruthless rival treasure hunters claim it for private collectors. But the Swiss Alps guard their ancient secrets with deadly determination, sudden avalanches can bury entire expeditions without warning, competing treasure hunters will eliminate anyone who stands in their way, and the growing attraction between the pragmatic mountaineer and the passionate historian threatens to distract them from the life-or-death decisions required at high altitude.

As Marcel and Céleste climb deeper into the heart of the Alps, from snow-covered mountain huts to hidden glacial caves, they must battle not only the mountain's merciless conditions and dangerous rivals, but the undeniable fire building between them. In peaks where the Iceman's spirit still wanders the frozen wilderness, will their warming romance prove to be their salvation—or will it lead them both into an icy grave?
