I’m not entirely sure what the point of this novella is. It’s labelled a prequel, so I assume you would read it before Slashes in the Snow, but (and I haven’t read Slashes) it doesn’t feel like the start of a series. It feels more like more information on a couple you like in Slashes so you read this afterwards.
Having said that, it was an okay book. It’s a lot light on information, there’s no real intro to the MC, or to any of the characters. 
It does seem as if it’s setting up for a kicking off point for Slashes, but again, it’s so light on information I feel as if I could do without this novella and just dive right in.
It’s been a long while since I’ve read an MC book so I’m intrigued, but I wouldn’t bother with this book. Might this change after reading the next? It’s possible, but as it stands, this seems a little pointless to me.

Tess escapes from Florida with a secret as big as Miami. She needs to find someplace to lay low and hide from her overbearing family. Mackinac Island, Michigan, should be the perfect place to hide out. However, her timing is a little off, it's the dead of winter and she's never been in temperatures below fifty degrees. Just her luck, her landlord, Lukas, is as hot as the sun. He's also moody and hiding secrets as well. Which suits Tess fine. A man is the last complication she needs. A Michigan blizzard leaves them trapped in the same house together and things heat up, fast. Tess finds herself falling for Lukas, in spite of the secrets that could ruin everything before it even begins.
