I’m Noelle Holiday, lover of all things cozy and festive. I thought moving into my grandma’s rent-controlled apartment in New York would be a fresh start. What I didn’t expect was sharing a wall with Jacob McCallister, my grumpy, Grinch-of-a-neighbor who hates joy, scented candles, and any music with jingle bells. He’s broody, blunt, and allergic to holiday cheer. I’ve never met someone so bothered by a string of Christmas lights or the scent of freshly baked cookies. Naturally, I’ve made it my mission to thaw his frosty demeanor.

Then there's her relationship history, which leans more towards tragic backstory than happily ever after.

I’m rarely a man who mixes business with pleasure but when I find myself hypnotized by a beautiful woman at the nightclub, I make the time to enjoy the finer things in life. Like having a quickie in the linen closet. Fast forward two weeks when that same magnificent woman shows up to my office, ready to work for my law firm as our new attorney.

I don’t need a man in my life to be happy. What I need? A vacation. Vitamin Sea? Yes, please! The charming, handsome stranger sitting next to me on the plane talking all the way to paradise? Perfect start to this trip. I can resist him and his smoldering looks, killer smile and confident attitude. Until I figure out that he’s my neighbor at the resort. His washboard abs and that perfect V...I don’t think I can resist him for a whole week. Giving in to temptation is easy. The souvenir he leaves me with? Not so much.

Trusting others means taking risks, and that’s hard for me to do. I mean, when your mother abandons you as a child, you’re left with scars. I’m not reckless. I’m not wild. I play by the rules. It’s safer that way. Or so I thought.... Catching my boyfriend cheating on me confirmed every reason I’d kept my heart guarded. But being kissed by a sexy-as-sin stranger in front of him proved how little I was in control. It was passionate, electric, and it rocked me to my core. He stole my breath but replaced it with anger. I stormed away without so much as a name exchange.
