The Christmas Date
She’s home and hearth
Kate Merrill has spent years striving for the stability she’s always craved, and with her law degree in reach, her life seems finally on course. But to her meddling but well-meaning neighbors, she’s just too serious—especially when it comes to love.
He fears putting down roots
Enter Tyler Nichols, the globe-trotting photojournalist who’s moved in next door. Unable to say no to her friends, and needing an excuse to escape the endless blind dates, Kate strikes a deal with Tyler to pretend they’re dating. It’s perfect: he’s never around, which means there’s no risk of complications.
Or so she thinks.
Once they step into each other’s lives, their undeniable chemistry turns pretense into passion. Kate finds herself falling for an itinerant man who might be on the next plane out.
For the first time, Tyler’s wanderlust clashes with his heart. When an urgent assignment takes him away for Christmas, Kate has to decide if she can love a man whose career puts him worlds away. And as a man with no real roots, Tyler must decide if he’s ready to create permanent Christmas magic with the woman he’s left behind.
