Can Connor show River a real Texas family Christmas?

When Connor finds River perched on the roof of the campus admin building, drunk and shouting into a snowstorm with a bottle of vodka in hand, getting him down is the easy part. The real challenge begins when Connor insists that River come home to Texas with him for Christmas.

River has no family or place he truly calls home outside of college. He's perfectly content spending Christmas alone in his budget motel, watching reruns of Elf. But Connor's persistent tales of his family's picture-perfect holiday celebrations on their ranch are starting to chip away at River's resolve. He never asked to be dragged to Texas. He didn't want to fall in love with the larger-than-life Campbell-Hayes family. And yet, he does.

From one Christmas to the next, this is Connor's chance to rescue River—and himself. Along the way, there are mistakes to make, hearts to heal, sparks to ignite, and love to discover. For Connor, showing River what it means to belong to a family isn't just about Christmas—it's about forever.
