Second chances and mistletoe are the last things he needs.

Divorced dad Birley Haynes is too busy raising his children and running his family's music school to dive headlong into a relationship. Then Harmony Holdich, his high school sweetheart, returns home for Christmas. Despite the threatening incidents around his workplace, she brings light and fun back into his life—and falls into his bed.

After the death of her unfaithful husband, Harmony plans to move across the country and start over. Reuniting with Birley never should've happened. His every kiss entices her to stick around long after the holidays are over, but all she can offer him is a fling.

When the threats rise, how will Birley keep his children safe and convince Harmony to give love another shot?
