'Home for the Holidays' takes an unexpected flip when Alicia has to spend the christmas break of her freshman year on college campus due to travel complications.

Celebrating christmas by herself shouldn't be much of a big deal, but when it's on another freaking continent-- thousands of miles away from her family-- it's obvious Alicia will catch the 'Scrooge and Grinch' syndrome this season.

Maybe if the long-haired girl with the extra chunky boots and goofy, lopsided smile decided to invite her over instead of roaming outside without a coat like a psychopath, she'd have a merry Christmas after all.

But things like that take miracles, Alicia doesn't believe in those.

In return for fixing her car at a discounted price, she has to come home with him for Christmas and pose as his girlfriend for a week. She reluctantly agrees expecting the week to pass by with no issues. It's one week, what could go wrong?

25 parts Complete

For recent law school grad Charlotte Maxwell, real life has never been so good. On a post-graduation vacation with her best friend, the last thing Charlie is thinking about is meeting anyone: all she's looking to do is eat, drink, and get some sun (although not necessarily in that order). After three stressful years of focusing on school, Charlie's long overdue for some relaxation and she intends on maximizing every moment of this trip...by doing absolutely nothing. What she doesn't expect on her perfect vacation is to meet the perfect guy. Alex is smart, funny, and handsome. Despite their different backgrounds - Charlie is from a Midwestern middle class family while Alex is a wealthy Brit - their chemistry is undeniable. Charlie's not exactly the vacation fling kind of girl, but figures she can make an exception in Alex's case. But is Alex really too good to be true? What if the only souvenir Charlie brings back from her vacation is a broken heart? xoxo Steph
