29-year-old Wall Street financial wizard Christopher Winters might be already the undisputed ruler of every stock market he plays in on the planet, but behind the ice-cold tough facade and the brainy bravado, he keeps hidden a heart that hasn’t belonged to him in fourteen years and his charming smiles never reach his eyes. He was lucky to meet his one true love early in life, but there’s a problem: she has never seen him as anything more than her nerdy childhood friend.Now every year in December he gets to spend an entire week in close quarters with her, since their families are tighter than ever, relaxing in the snowy Aspen by occupying every waking moment obsessing over what he can’t have, avoiding awkward moments all over the place, and being constantly scolded by his matchmaking mother about how bad it is of him to insist on being single while they all celebrate Christmas together.Isn’t that nice?28-year-old Hope Snow loves the Season to be Jolly with all her heart. Every year she can’t wait to leave San Francisco and the fancy art dealing world behind to go spend time with her family and the Winters during their traditional 7-days-of-Total-Christmas-holiday in their usual frosty paradise. The best part is that she gets to see Chris, her dearest friend in the whole world, but, of course, there’s also a worst part, and that is being constantly nagged by her mom about finding the one, settling down and having half a ton of babies, as if she needs a yearly-reminder about how broken she must be for being unable to fall in love! Not this year, though.She has a plan this time around or better yet: she has a deal in mind and the only thing she needs is for Chris to play along.And Christopher?Well, he loves her too much to refuse, but how far can you push a man in love before his control finally snaps?
