Hotshot celebrity publicist—and certified Christmas cynic—Graham Bartlett couldn’t imagine a worse place to spend the holidays than his quaint hometown of Mistletoe Grove.
But that’s exactly what’s happening now as he’s forced to take a paparazzi-magnet actress undercover and out of the tabloids leading up to her comeback movie premiere Christmas Day.
It’s not all bad, though. This assignment could earn Graham his dream promotion, provided he can pull off the fake relationship he’s concocted with his client to keep her identity a secret and make it through the holidays without another PR scandal.
There’s just one snag. Brent, the hunk who owns the local hot cocoa shop—and Graham’s old high school crush…who’s about to become the unwitting target of a matchmaking scheme courtesy of Graham’s phony girlfriend and meddling mother.
Now, despite having sworn off love—and his hometown—long ago, Graham’s finding that his strictly-business work trip is fast becoming a fiasco.
It’s a recipe for disaster, but as Brent’s small-town holiday cheer melts Graham’s icy exterior, this Grinchy ladder-climber might just learn to see when love is right in front of him—and maybe even rediscover the magic of Christmas along the way.
