After a Thanksgiving PR disaster went viral, I’m back in Snowberry Falls, Vermont, running the town’s Christmas festival—and praying it saves my career.
Then my ex shows up—parading his influencer fiancée—and I need a win. Fast. Enter Penn Radford: Boston Bucks enforcer, tabloid magnet, and currently stranded without a room at the fully booked inn.
I know his type. Loud, flashy, allergic to shirts…and the guy who punched mall Santa.
My solution? Team up. Fake a holiday romance. Nail the festival. Fix his image. Easy. But the mistletoe buzzer won’t quit, and those pretend kisses? They feel way too real.
And when my past comes back swinging, I have to figure out if Penn is the real deal…or just another mistake wrapped in peppermint sheets.
