Valencia: After calling it quits with my cheating fiancé, I'm definitely not feeling the Christmas spirit this year. But when my best friend invites me to a holiday dance party, I show up ready to shake my ass. Except I must be on Santa's naughty list, because I run into my high school archnemesis, Gideon Noble. The music, red and green lights, and Gideon's bitable bottom lip make me reckless, so I drag him onto the dance floor. And then? I take him home with me. Gideon: If this is my second chance with Valencia, I'm not wasting it. We're both alone this Christmas, so we create a naughty and nice list that would make Santa blush: twelve days of yuletide cheer, and twelve nights decking each other's halls. As Christmas Eve approaches, I realize that twelve days with Valencia Torres isn't enough. I want forever. But does she?
