Mia Sanchez lives a simple life—she enjoys her work as a teacher, going to yoga, and spending evenings drinking tea on the porch with her boyfriend of ten years, Ryan. Then one day she comes home to find Ryan packing his things, and her perfectly organized life falls apart. In a desperate attempt to get Mia out of bed, her best friend Emily arranges for her to spend a week in Greece with her late grandmother’s sister, Elpida Katrakis. Mia’s never met Elpida, she’s never even been to Greece, but she knows she can’t spend the rest of her life under the covers. So armed with a travel journal, and a promise she made to Emily—to kiss the first Greek man she meets—Mia embarks on what she thinks will be a simple week of getting to know her grandmother’s elderly sister.

Twenty-five year old Charlie London has always been too busy for women because of his restaurant business in NYC. What will happen when he spots the girl he let go of all those years ago? Will old love rekindle into a new flame? Find out in The Mistletoe Game!

They say money can buy happiness. Emily Parker is trying to make bank to prove that saying right but no matter how hard she pounds the pavement in peep-toe heels and pencil skirts, she's nowhere near the success that her father, a career salesman, always said she would have. At the brink of losing a deal that could cost her more than she can afford, Emily quickly loses the spring in her step and the usually present smile on her face. On what's likely the worst night of her life, she finds herself stranded in the company of her intriguing neighbor whose laid-back outlook in life only highlights her own lack of it. Suddenly unplugged from the pressures of her life, Emily rediscovers the simple pleasures she'd long taken for granted, forcing her to question if the dream she's traded them for was even hers to begin with. She's about to make the pitch of her life-to chase her own happiness. The question is, can she afford it?
