Maisie

Bah-freaking-humbug!

There! I said it! I love Christmas, but being stuck in a car for days with Scrooge McScroogington is enough to make even the most holiday-prone woman wish for the doldrums of February. Worse, Eli McSpadden gets under my skin by just…breathing! Have I mentioned he's my ex who broke up with me on Valentine's eve last year? Yeah, Mr.-Gorgeous-and-I-Know-It is the one who broke my heart. But I'm over him.

And I hate him.

Eli

I'm a stupid jerk.

There! I said it. When my company relocated me with no noticed last winter, I did the one thing I thought was best. I broke up with the girl I love. I told her we both needed to set down roots in our separate cities. The thought of her "rooting" with anyone else eats at me, but what could I do? Her life is at her university; mine is wherever I get sent.

It took three seconds for me to realize I made a huge mistake, and now, that I'm back in town and we're both heading home for the holidays, I'm going to make it right and hopefully not end up in a ditch—physically and emotionally—while I'm trying.
