Kept for Christmas

Can this older mountain man find love with a woman who’s come down with holiday amnesia?

Emma
Why can’t real life be a hallmark movie?
A big, brooding, inked up man, desperate to take care of me.
A cozy little cabin in the woods and a marriage proposal in less than two hours.
Instead, I’m holed up with a mountain man who owes someone a favor
And this concussion I have is only getting in the way of the fun I had planned.
I should let the fantasy go, and forget about ever laying hands on his over-worked biceps,
But I never have been a quitter.

Emma is gorgeous, timeless, and everything I’ve ever wanted.
But she’s got more walls up than a North Pole fortress.
In my fantasies, I knock them all down and see how far we can take a feeling.
Trouble is, she’s way too young for me.
Too young, and too innocent.
I’m here to care for her, so that’s what I should do.
Trouble is, someone should’ve defined ‘care for’ a little more clearly.
