Falling in love was never the plan.

Max Harvey was only supposed to spend a few days in the UK to solve a problem in his aero designs and then return home to the US in time for Christmas. But that was before he bumped into the hotel maid.

When Talia Wolf was suddenly thrust into the role of parent to her five-year-old nephew, Charlie, she had to give up the archaeologist career she loved. Now she spends her days at a job she hates, barely making ends meet, as she and Charlie move from place to place, trying to stay one step ahead of Charlie's drug-addicted father.

Two people who had never had time for love, but when they met sparks flew. With Christmas only a few weeks away is there a chance that they're just a wish away from happiness?
