Chloe Richardson had just landed the biggest client of her career. A promotion was in her future, or so she thought until the handsome Jason Mitchell walked into her office with his gorgeous smile and searing blue eyes—and took her job.
Losing her job so close to Christmas, Chloe’s only choice was to go back home to Aubrey Heights, where the Christmas spirit is celebrated in a tourist loving, wonderland. Perhaps she can pull herself together before the new year—before her new career search.
However, Jason follows her to Aubrey Heights—with a mission of his own. First he stole her job—now he wants to steal her heart.
Is the spirit of Christmas alive enough in her to let that happen?

Character Casting
In casting this novel, these are the top four people that come to mind for the characters.
Chloe Richardson: Kristen Bell comes to mind when I think of Chloe. The upbeat, ready to take over the world woman whose attitude can change on a dime. This firecracker appreciates the unique town she was brought up in, which grandly celebrates Christmas, and also the hustle and bustle of the city where she does her best to advance her career.
Jason Mitchell: Chris Evans would tie this character up in a bow. Jason is all business—a professional through and through, but even though that takes a hard exterior, he’s not an ass about it. He has a graciousness to him and confidence in his team. And when he decides he wants Chloe in his life, he’s not aggressive.
William Mason: William is the guy who gives kids of the boss a bad name. He’s pushy, he’s condescending, and all around vindictive. Tom Hiddleston comes to mind when I think of William. He’s that kind of guy you buy into, but later find out he’s not an upstanding guy at all.
Gloria Vandenberg: An over the top Zendaya would hit the mark when talking about Pop! Cosmetics founder Gloria Vandenberg. Heiress to the Vandenberg Furniture fortune, this up and comer is ready to take over the world with her business.
Snippet
Jason was sure that he'd bleed out before they could take him back and stitch up his head. A nurse had given him a gauze pad to replace the tissue that had dried to his skin.
Chloe sat next to him frantically filling out his medical record in her beautiful penmanship.
"Address?"
He gave it to her and watched as she made perfect fours.
"Phone number?"
She wrote it down.
"I'm a Pisces. My favorite color is red. I like my pizza with just sausage, and I'm sensitive to gluten, but I can't keep away from it."
She stopped writing and looked up at him. "I don't think I need all that. But thanks," she snapped, but it only made it funnier to him.
"I just thought it was a good time to get to know each other. My turn, why don't you answer those questions for me?" He tried to smile, but each time he did it hurt his head.
"Everything you need to know about me is in my employee file. You can ask H.R. if you need to see it since you're my boss."
She directed her attention right back to the form, but he got the message loud and clear. She wasn't happy about his new position.
