Christmas in the City

Gemma's a successful architect in London, but her personal life has been a mess since her engagement ended in a very public disaster. She throws herself into work until a chance meeting with an aloof and dominating billionaire at a Christmas party awakens a side of her she never knew she had, a side that wants to let someone else take control for a while.

One year ago, Holly and Jackson met when their best friends Gemma and Cole got together. There was an instant spark between them, but they were looking for different things. Holly wanted a fling, and Jackson was after love. When it came time for him to return to New York, they parted as friends, and Holly stayed behind in London.

Olivia Hanmer is a typically wholesome, all-American girl: an A student, a star athlete, a daddy's girl. Whenever she wants something, she goes after it and gets it. This Christmas, she wants Noah Stamer. They've known each other since they were kids, but now she's all grown up, and determined to prove it to him.

Noelle never seems to come first. In her family, she’s the second daughter. In her college classes, she’s in a battle for top spot with the annoyingly clever Aaron. Her best friend, Eve, is richer, prettier, and just managed to hook up with Corey, the guy Noelle has had a crush on for years.

Eve spent the last 18 months surrounded by poverty, far from her life of luxury as a billionaire heiress. Now, it’s time to go home, but first, she needs to hand over her project to the charity’s director: the passionate and opinionated Julien. Sparks instantly fly, and when they realize they both have plans in Toronto before Christmas, they agree to meet up. Julien has spent his life to helping those in need but his encounter with Eve has him focused on his own needs for once; his and Eve’s.

The extended Stamer/Hanmer family flies to Australia for Christmas to celebrate Eve and Julien’s big day. At the beach resort with its attached private club, old passions are indulged and new ones discovered as all five couples prepare to enter the next phase of their lives. Things aren't always easy, but with the right person at their side, they'll never have to face it alone. When pleasure prevails, could this be the best Christmas ever?
