Summary: Buffy Summers used to be a budding professional snowboarder. Some tragedies and some years later, she's living as far from the mountains and snow as she can get, and her life is at its most perfect. Then her sister, Dawn, gets a hare-brained idea to bring her back to the mountains.
Spike Pratt used to be semi-pro on the snowboard. Some misfortunes and some years later, he's living as close to the mountains as he can get, trying to sustain himself as a snowboard instructor at a fancy Colorado ski resort, where the cost of living is just a little higher every year.
What will Buffy find in the sprawling vistas and harsh climate of the high country? And when her path crosses Spike's, could they both be in for the ride of their lives?
