Book Synopsis
The holidays seem to bring out the worst in people, well at least that's what Chrisette Rice believes. It has been a year since her mother disappeared on a trip to Fiji, not making it home in time for Christmas. Chrisette believes and faces the fact that her mother could be dead and undiscovered. Following after that, her fiance called off their long engagement. For a whole entire year, this caused Chrisette to suddenly become Ms.Scrooge. Chrisette's attitude is just as cold as the winter days and frigid as the winter nights. As the holiday season approaches again, she is crossing off her calender until it's over. The thought of Christmas brings back bitter, depressing memories and hurt in her heart. Her heart feels frostbitten, stale and lifeless. However, after meeting Captain Greg McCarthy, he is willing to change Chrisette's mind.
