    He's the hottest country rock star in the country whose reputation needs to be repaired. 
     
     
     
    I'm an unemployed event planner who's desperate for a job. When I'm forced to team up with Mr. Smolder for the most ambitious Christmas event around, it might be my biggest mistake yet . . . 
     
     
     
    For me, Christmas has never been the most wonderful time of year. It's a painful reminder of my father walking out and my whole family's world crashing down. After that, I never really believed in a happily ever after. 
     
     
     
    Right now, I've got my hands full giving my hometown Christmas festival a much-needed makeover, while trying to convince Jace Knight (a.k.a.: Mr. Smolder) to headline a concert for the event. 
     
     
     
    It's an uphill battle to wrangle the festival committee and turn the town into quaint Christmas village, while I ignore these feelings that involve mistletoe kisses with the famous music star. 
     
     
     
    The last time someone tried to kiss me under the mistletoe, it was a total disaster. 
     
     
     
    Which is why I'm not about to let Jace Knight work his mistletoe magic on me now . . . especially since I'm hiding a secret: I've never been kissed before.

    Okay, so my bad for assuming the guy I was going on a date with wasn't married. 
    And my bad for taking him to a friend's house for dinner, only to find out my friend is also friends with his wife. Because, in fact, he is married. And she happens to be at my friend's house because her husband was "busy working." 
    Confused? So am I. 
    Unsurprisingly, my date's wife is super angry about finding out that her husband is a cheating asshole. Girl, I get it. 
    Then to make matters more convoluted, there is the man sitting next to my date's wife. A man named King, who is apparently her brother, and who lives up to his name. 
    Since my date is a two-timing prick, I'm not going to feel bad about drooling over King, especially since I'll never see him again. Or at least I don't plan to. 
    I plan to take an Uber to the cheater's apartment to get my car keys. I plan for it to be quick. 
    If I had to list a thousand possible outcomes… witnessing my date's murder, being kidnapped by his killer, then being forced to marry the super attractive but clearly deranged crime lord would not have been on my bingo card. 
    But alas, here I am.
