After years of ho-hum dating, Noelle Gregory is tired of fooling around. Thereβs only ever been one guy for herβJake Conroy, her best friendβs older brother. Now that Jakeβs back in town, sheβs headed to his sisterβs New Yearβs Eve party to make her move. Purse full of condoms? Check. Sparkly dress guaranteed to show Jake the sexy woman sheβs become? Check.
Carjacker that makes off with both two hours before the party? Check.
When Jake finds Noelle stranded on the side of the roadβlooking sexier than ever in her striped socks and silly holiday shirt, damn itβheβs glad for the snowstorm that cancels his sisterβs party. His and Noelleβs friendship has tormented him for years, and now, Jake wonders if he should dare to sample what heβs always wantedβ¦and if heβll be able to walk away when itβs over.
