It's really strange how there are some faces we see everyday and yet they don't really matter in our lives. They could be the girl you catch sight of regularly at your favorite coffee shop, the guy who sits next to you on train everyday or might just be someone who lives in the same town as you. You know their faces well but nothing much about them. This was the exact case for Norah Bishop when it came to Daniel Cohen. For her, Daniel was just some guy who had been her classmate for a very long time and whom the whole school worshiped but fate never gave her a chance to cross paths with him. But all of that was destined to change in just one night...

Catching a glimpse of a legendary all-white reindeer is supposed to bring good luck. Not for Georgia Greene. As Georgia makes her way home for Christmas, a white reindeer dashes across the road in front of her, causing her to crash her car into a ditch. With her car stuck and a storm blowing in, Georgia is forced to hole up at a remote Christmas tree farm with the help of its kindly owner, Sue. Though Sue tells Georgia stories about how seeing the white reindeer is a lucky event, Georgia is skeptical. She doesn't feel very lucky. Not only is she stranded and snowed in, but she's also stuck in the presence of Sue's surly son, Felix Nissen. But despite her distaste for the holidays, Georgia has to admit there's something special about the Christmas tree farm--almost magical. Maybe the reindeer brought her more than luck... Maybe it brought her right where she needed to be. --- This was my winning NaNoWriMo project for 2021! I took it down to edit it after the holiday season, but now it's coming back with more chapters!
