Haley McKee is furious to find herself stuck in the tiny town of Starlight Bend so near Christmas. The only one who can help her is the handsome Maddox Campbell, a cowboy who's not impressed with her fancy job title and money. In fact, no one has given Haley this much grief her entire life.

But there's a lot more to Maddox than at first seems—he's a hard-working man who gives much of his time and patience to help those who have little.

When a Starlight Bend tradition promises to bring Haley all she wants, will she make her Christmas wish with her head or her heart?
