    The question is, why? 24-year-old Holly Hart is a sweet and unassuming woman, lover of all things Christmas. She’s always been sure of two facts since she got old enough to understand life: it was scientifically impossible she could meet someone who could make her sick of the Season to be Jolly and, most of all, she was never ever going to meet a man who would make her wish to change her permanent status from nice to naughty, but this Christmas is about to prove her wrong because she is going to meet both in the huge, hunky and sexy person of Xander Halls, the CEO of Halls Tech.
