But this year, he hopes to make her his Christmas bride!

When his ex's mother ends up in the hospital, marine captain Noah Brand suddenly finds himself back in his hometown and looking after a little girl--who could be his daughter! The only person he trusts with this secret is his best friend, Dr. Shayna Wade. Shayna has always been the person he could count on, and this Christmas he needs her support more than ever. As the three of them make holiday magic together, can Noah convince his best friend that he finally sees her as the woman of his dreams?
