Description

Jillian Sinclair's usual Christmas glee is missing in action. Not to be defeated, she packs a few treasured ornaments and heads to a rented cottage. On a beach. In the middle of winter. Perfect for sitting near a crackling fire, thinking deep thoughts, and answering important questions. Like, should she quit her job selling cars to become a travel writer? Should she eat all the cookies the first night? Should she sleep with the gorgeous guy next door?

Famous author Patrick Evans has problems of his own, namely finish his next book before he misses his deadline, again. His house beside the ocean is supposed to provide solitude, an escape from painful memories. It's not supposed to be invaded by a beautiful but annoying woman with crazy, fun, sexy ideas.

Just a brief holiday romance, right? Jillian will head off on an adventure and never look back. And Patrick will finish his book, alone in his big, lonely house.

Exactly what they both want, right?
