Holly Adams loves all things Christmas!
She was born with the spirit of Christmas practically in her DNA. Once a year for the holidays, she travels back home to Colorado Springs after moving away for her career.
This year is different, her brother Nick and his best friend Marco, unveiling the opening of their own dream brewery, she flies out a week early to attend.
But what happens when she meet a moody Alfred, or Red he goes by, a friend of Marco, who is there to photograph the opening of the brewery.
She has notorious social anxiety, primarily around guys. Especially attractive guys. It's undoubtedly why she's still single in her thirties.
Will a kiss under the mistletoe be the cure?
