author: Williams, Lacy
description: Will Harris is a bit of a Scrooge. He likes his life just the way it is--no family, no girlfriend, no Christmas. No complications. But with a new upstairs neighbor and a stray, injured dog challenging his ordered life, he can't concentrate on the job he’s passionate about. Bridie Taylor loves Christmas and makes no apologies for her over-the-top celebration of the season. After battling cancer, she’s determined to live life to the fullest--and that includes finding out why her enigmatic downstairs neighbor has emotional walls so high. Together, can Bridie and a charming, ornery dog soften Will’s heart and turn him into a Santa? Or will he stay a Scrooge forever?
