Candace Hanes is no stranger to the dating scene. In fact, she’s been on nothing but casual dates since her last serious relationship ended years ago. But as soon as Chase Mitchell asks for her number on a discarded receipt, she’s smitten.
Except, he hadn’t asked for her number at all. He was more interested in the barista working behind the counter.
As soon as Candace realizes this irresistible man isn’t interested in her, she knows she needs to keep him at a distance. No one that suave, that charismatic, that hot has any business being just her friend.
Easier said than done. Especially when Chase admits he needs a fake date for his company’s Christmas party to keep his insufferable boss from cornering him under the mistletoe. . . again.
Now, Candace has to find a way to make it through practice dates, subtle touches, and fake kisses unscathed.
Will their performance simply keep his boss at bay, or will Candace get a love that lasts for Christmases to come?
