A control freak, a free-spirit, and a sultry Australian Christmas…
Facing the prospect of a holiday season alone and a jobless New Year, Californian Carissa Cole uses the last of her savings to visit her bestie in Australia. Already struggling to feel the festivity, things get worse when she gets stuck at the airport, hours from her destination.
With a smile that’s never failed and a reputation for charming the socks off anyone, former Royal Australian Air Force pilot Lachlan Devine is always up for an adventure. He agrees to make a special flight to rescue his friend's holiday guest. When that visitor turns out to be a feisty American with a fear of flying, he’s ready for the challenge.
Carissa hates Lachlan's tight-fitting joke T-shirt, she isn't swayed by his charm, she doesn’t believe opposites attract, and she’s not interested in another disappointment. But she can’t deny the way she melts when Lachlan takes her hand and talks her down. Maybe a holiday fling with no strings and a short expiration date is the best Christmas gift she could give herself.
There’s only one problem: Lachlan seems determined to keep her in the friend-of-a-friend zone. Is there a way to overcome their differences and bridge the distance between them? Or will they say goodbye once Christmas is over?
