Summary

It's a Christmas affair to remember as a Hollywood mogul discovers his inner cowboy--and the woman of his dreams--amid the rugged beauty of Wyoming.

Raine McCall would take snow-covered mountains over a star-studded premiere any day. But when hotshot movie executive Mick Branson arranges dinner on Christmas Eve to discuss a work opportunity, she's intrigued--by the offer and the man. She's a no-makeup, no-frills single mom, who's happy with her quiet life. Sharing chili cheeseburgers and sizzling kisses with Mick is sure heating up her holiday, but country girl and power player don't mix...

It's not just work that's brought Mick back to Mustang Creek. Since he first visited to oversee a documentary, free-spirited graphic designer Raine has been in his head. Her approach to life is as unconventional as her quirky holiday ornaments. Their attraction is undeniable--and so are their differences. Putting down roots in the Wild West wasn't in the script. But there are some Christmas gifts you can't walk away from, even when they turn your whole world upside down...

Library Journal Review

Graphic designer and single mom Raine McCall wasn't looking to spend Christmas Eve with high-powered film executive Mick Branson. But Mick is in town to surprise Slater Carson with the debut of his Wild West film on Christmas Day, and he also wants to see Raine again about a business proposal. As nothing is open in Mustang Creek on Christmas Eve, Raine does the only thing she can-she invites him over to share her private holiday tradition: green chili hamburgers, wine, and a John Wayne classic. The evening is an unqualified hit, and the attraction that sizzles between them can't be denied despite their obvious differences. A haunted cabin, a dash of magic, and snippets from the novel that Raine's Western writer grandfather started and that Mick is finishing add humor, intrigue, and a dollop of whimsy. VERDICT A stunning setting, flirty banter, and the chaotic warmth of a large family Christmas make this a worthy addition to this popular series.
