Connor Marino has driven Delaney Carmichael to distraction since the seventh grade. They may be in college now, but that doesn't stop Delaney from cursing when he and Connor are assigned to work together in their Model United Nations class. Connor, with his Irish-Italian good looks, South African accent, and athletic body is an international smorgasbord of hotness that still leaves Delaney tongue-tied, and the admittedly awkward bookworm doesn't like that one bit. When Connor drops by Delaney's dorm room, things come to a head between them. What's supposed to be a simple discussion on international relations turns into something much more...

For Connor Marino, Christmas can't get here soon enough. It's his first holiday alone with his boyfriend, Delaney Carmichael, and they plan to celebrate by playing tourists in New York City on Christmas Eve, followed by a romantic Christmas day at home. But lately Delaney's behavior has been odd and Connor is concerned. Connor knows Delaney loves him. Yet he can't help but wonder if their "Winter Wonderland" of a holiday will be the thing that sends his and Delaney's relationship into deep freeze...or be the gift the two of them need.
