Unlucky in love, Maddie LaRocque moves to Calgary at the urging of her college roommate. Maddie’s luck goes from bad to worse when she’s laid off from her job two months before Christmas. Undeterred, she sets up a gift wrapping business in the lobby of the Drummond Building in downtown Calgary where she meets Annie, a ten-year-old who has recently lost her parents. When Maddie falls into the arms of the building’s maintenance man it looks as though her luck is changing, but she soon learns that Brent isn’t who she thought he was.

Maddie’s roommate Lily hasn’t fared too well in the romance department either, having been used for her beauty and Asian heritage by a man in Calgary. The moment Chase Drummond spots Lily, he’s stunned by her beauty, but Lily resists his advances, unwilling to have her heart broken by the most eligible bachelor in town.

Will a young orphan girl be able to convince the two women that love is the best gift of all this Christmas?

He's still into computer games, and to make matters worse, his hair is long and his sense of style sucks. He's nothing like her suave, sexy boyfriend.

They discover they've both been invited to the same wedding and when he bemoans his lack of style, she surprises herself by offering to help him with a make-over. But Freddie isn't the only one in need of help. While Samantha helps Freddie, he helps her discover an inner strength she didn't know she had. Join Samantha and Freddie as they navigate the minefield of their growing attraction on the way to finding out who they really are.
