Charlie is home from college for the holidays, and some things never change. Too much eggnog, too much family, and way too much time seated across the dinner table from the one person she hates.

Victor Stone. Her dad's sinfully hot business partner. She's been locked in a war of insults with him for years, as they both try to get in the last word.

But something is different, this year. The way he's looking at Charlie is different, and the tension is hot enough to combust. When he finally confronts her, it doesn't take much for that heat to consume them. And if Victor gets his way, she'll be carrying more than her luggage back to college after the holidays.
