They were looking for an escape and found each other instead. Can a Christmas Eve tradition bring them together for good?

Kelsey and Sev came to the same bar on Christmas Eve for the same reasons: to escape. Kelsey, in her wedding dress, after breaking up with her cheating fiancé. Sev, just days from deploying with the Navy, determined not to bring down his family’s Christmas.

The last thing they expected was to find each other.

In one magical night of secrets revealed, origami roses, and a getaway ride on his motorcycle, Kelsey realizes she doesn't want to let go of the handsome and protective sailor. She offers to make a pact with him: they'll both work to transform their lives, and hold each other accountable by returning to the same spot next Christmas Eve to see how far they've come. Unable to resist the stunning blonde with the sparkling eyes, Sev agrees.

As their simple pact becomes a yearly tradition, Kelsey realizes that the friend she can't do without has become the man she truly loves. When disaster strikes and they're separated by thousands of miles, she doesn’t want to play it safe with him any longer. Telling Sev how much she cares means risking the relationship they’ve already built, but it also has the potential for everything she’s ever wanted.
