Love? Second chances? That crap is for romantics, not realists like Juliette. She has a bad attitude about love and an even worse one when it comes to second chances. And she may dress like an elf for a few weeks out of the year, but that doesn't mean she loves Christmas. Stability? Purpose? Landon is surfing a pleasant wave of both until he's fired. Devastating news from his sister certainly doesn't help. At least he has the holidays to look forward to. When Landon shows up at the mall and Juliette prevents a disaster, he can't stop thinking about that sweet elf. Juliette doesn't believe in the spirit of Christmas, but she can't help but wonder why Landon was in her line that day. Could Landon deserve one of those second chances she's so unwilling to give?
