"On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...absolutely nothing. Because he had no idea that he was my true love. What a jerk. Noelle Lennon has been in love with Brady Breckridge for as long as she can remember. A sad, unrequited love that causes her nothing but trouble as she pines over her brother's best friend. Now the gorgeous, muscled, secretive special ops bane of her existence is back in town, back in her life...and because a few dangerous incidents may have happened recently, Brady is suddenly declaring himself her personal protector. So unnecessary. Also...so strangely hot. ... But as the nights grow colder and the fierce desire Brady feels for Noelle rages ever hotter, he knows that his control won't last long. He wants one thing for Christmas this year...just one thing...his true love. And he will do whatever it takes to win Noelle's heart"--Publisher.
