Meri Klaus has one job: choose the next Santa. The problem? No one in the northern climes is suitable for the title.

As the daughter of Santa Claus, it’s up to her to keep the family business going. When Dad comes down with a case of polar flu, the
whole world needs a stand-in, or Christmas won’t be coming this year. So what’s a gal to do?

Brett Dunning lost his holiday spirit seven years ago when childbirth took his wife on Christmas Eve. His daughter Holly might light up his life, but no amount of begging will get him to deck the halls.

With three short weeks to go, Meri doesn’t have much time to find a Mr. Claus, but when an old college friend requires a helping hand, she meets a man who needs a dose of holiday hope as much as she does.

Meri finds herself set on Brett, but how much mistletoe will it take to thaw his frozen heart?
