She’s going to stay in New York City and have a sane Christmas instead of enduring life at home which is bound to consist of chimney fires, questionable treats, and dysfunctional family drama. But when her family chips in for a plane ticket she finds herself back in her hometown, trying to referee between her divorced parents and avoid getting sucked into helping with Mom’s new business, Man Haters, Inc., while keeping the sibling rivalry to a minimum. Hardest of all is trying to ignore the fact that she’s still drawn to Gabe Knightly, the man who was the love of her life... until he dated both her best friend and her sister. This is going to be the worst Christmas of her life. Or is it? ABOUT THE AUTHOR Sheila Roberts is a best-selling women’s fiction writer.

    When a job comes along requesting the likeness of Mr. and Mrs. Claus, she knows her parents are a shoe-in. But when they arrive in Cedar Crest, along with a dozen other hopefuls, Samantha fears she made her parents a promise she can’t keep. The competition is fierce, but she is determined to secure their rightful Santa spot. Noah Jensen has made a few family promises of his own. If he can’t turn their sleepy, snow-capped hideaway into a booming Christmas destination, their rental log cabins won’t be worth more than the firewood they’re made of. Noah is willing to try anything, even film a festive commercial to draw in potential guests. As casting day approaches, Noah can’t ignore Samantha’s endearing nature, nor his growing feelings toward her. But he worries things may change once she learns the real state of the cabins. And when she calls on her ex-husband and business partner for a favor, Noah wonders if that relationship is truly in the past. Is Christmas romance in the air for Noah and Samantha? Or will the credits roll on their new relationship before it even gets off the ground
