Childhood neighbors, rivals, enemies. This Christmas, will love have a fighting chance? The palm trees and beaches of Florida are as far from her chaotic family as Cindy Sinclair can get. Bonus: her anticipated promotion is the perfect excuse not to come home for the holidays. Or it was, until she’s passed over and the job is given to none other than her childhood nemesis, the boy next door. This far from New Mexico, Nick Hoover never imagined he’d beat Cindy out for a job. Again. He’s offended her, adored her, and messed up her plans since the day they met, but this time, Nick is determined to prove he never wanted to be her enemy. If only she’ll let him. When their reignited adolescent rivalry gets out of hand, their boss insists they both go home, face the hurts of their pasts, and bury the hatchet once and for all. With help from her meddling family, this could be the Christmas they quit clashing and give love a fighting chance. Will Cindy set aside her preconceptions and see past the prankster into the heart of the man Nick truly is?
