Meet Mia Wilkinson. Mia Wilkinson doesn't feel very thankful, despite it being Thanksgiving. She's just found out that--despite so many promises--her married boyfriend has no intention of leaving his wife. She heads north to her deceased grandmother's house in a small town in Vermont. But her plans for solitary Christmas don't go off without a hitch-especially when a gorgeous South African photographer shows up on her doorstep. And then there's Jake Groenewald... Jake's come to Hunters Grove to get over losing his best friend and colleague to the atrocities of war. The last thing he expects is to have his life turned upside down by Mia and her Rules of Cohabitation. And falling in love is definitely not on his agenda. Will a little snow help them along the way?
