Amelia Lawrence is not a Scrooge. She is, however, tired of spending Christmas with a family who doesn't seem to care that she's even present. When the hot coworker she's been fawning over says he needs a last minute house sitter to watch his cute pup Finley, Amelia jumps at the chance for an excuse to stay in town. Making a little money to pad her solo vacation fund is just a bonus. What neither she nor Levi Abner could've predicted was a blizzard of epic proportions leaving them snowed in together for Christmas. For anyone else, it would spell disaster. But not Levi. As an overgrown former college football player with a major holiday obsession, he's determined to remind Amelia that she's worth a little Christmas magic. The problem? He's only got until the snow clears to do it.
