For some time Reginald Jones was attracted to his best friend Alyssa, but their relationship didn't create fireworks for either of them. It wasn't until Alyssa fell in love with another man that he realized he was attracted to Melinda who he'd thought hated him. But now that they have their chance, she has pushed him aside. Reginald has never let anything interfere with his work, but he knows that if he wants Melinda he has to work as hard to get her as he has worked to build a successful business. He only hopes he hasn't waited too long, because the fireworks between them are absolutely sizzling. But even if Melinda doesn't accept him, he loves her enough to try to help her find joy in her life again.
Christmas is just two weeks away and Melinda just can't dredge up any holiday spirit. Although her sister was murdered two years ago, she's still grieving. She loves Reginald, but she can't be what he needs right now. Besides, his feelings might be on the rebound. But soon, he's around all the time and she's unsure of how to handle it. It isn't too long before she begins to believe again, but then someone tries to kill her and she doesn't know why. This puts an entirely new perspective on things. She's no longer dreading Christmas but will she stay alive long enough to enjoy it?
Genre: Romantic Suspense
