She’s not asking Santa for a puppy.
She’s not wishing for a pony.
And a certain drummer boy is definitely not on her Christmas list.

All Rachel MacDonald wants for Christmas is to make it through her best friend’s wedding with her dignity intact. Fresh from a holiday heartbreak—courtesy of her flaky ex-fiancé—she’s armed with retail therapy and a strict ‘stick to sensible choices’ policy. With a partner’s seat at her law firm hanging in the balance, she can’t afford distractions. But when she’s paired with charming drummer Teddy Hargrove in the wedding party, her resolve crumbles faster than day-old Christmas cookies. A no-strings fling with a hard end date might be the only reckless choice she’s willing to make.

Teddy’s earned his spot on Santa’s naughty list—and his charm makes it impossible for anyone to hold it against him. As the irresistible drummer of Stellar Riot, he’s never pretended to be anything but a love-’em-and-leave-’em musician whose ex-girlfriends still send him Christmas cards. But one look at Rachel in her emerald-green bridesmaid dress has him wondering if it’s time to change his tune. Too bad she’s got him filed firmly under ‘Christmas Bad Idea #1.’

Partnered in a wedding-week Christmas Challenge—with gingerbread showdowns and carol face-offs—they can’t outrun their very inconvenient spark. Love might be the real win, if Rachel can trust her heart to a drummer boy who’s never played for keeps—until now.
