All he wanted for Christmas...was to get away from the hustle and bustle of another lonely holiday season. But when Tucker Maddock stopped at what he thought was a quaint country inn, he found himself at a reunion of the big, boisterous Marsh family -- who instantly welcomed their "long-lost cousin" with open arms....

It was tempting to pretend, just for a little while, that this close, loving family was his own. But there was one small problem -- a woman named Ruth Marsh. She was suspicious of him from the start -- and so beautiful, he definitely didn't want her to think they were related!

And suddenly Tucker could think of something he'd really like to unwrap come Christmas morning.
