They say you should believe in the magic of Christmas, but for some, that's easier said than done.
Avery Owens has never enjoyed the holidays. Christmas carols and sugar cookies only remind her of the lackluster childhood she endured while growing up. Hang that on the tree with last year's Christmas Eve break-up, and she could skip the season altogether. Already, this year is proving to be no different. With her college dorm closing for repairs over winter break, she has nowhere else to go but back home to those painful memories. Or does she?
When Jack Watson, a long-time friend, offers to let her stay with him, she graciously accepts. And the more time they spend together, the deeper their unexpected attraction becomes. There's just one problem. Jack is also the best friend of the man who already broke her heart. Can Avery move on from the past and find her own Christmas miracle?
