It started with a deal…

Amber Stone should be happy—it's Christmastime in New York, her café had a successful opening, she's finally free of her abusive ex-fiancé. But she can't help the loneliness that comes with seeing her friends in loving couples. Worse, she's lost her teaching job, which will upset her favorite student, Tyler.

Tyler's father, Noah Quinn, is worried what the change in routine will do to his autistic son. He's known Amber for years, but they've never really been friends, so he can't just ask her to spend time with Tyler outside of school. Can he?

With her confidence shaken by her ex, Amber has nothing to lose. Plus, she'll get to hang out with a fun kid—and his sexy as hell dad. As their lessons heat up, Amber isn't so sure dating is necessary anymore. But Tyler is Noah's entire world, and he can't give a woman like Amber what she needs…what she wants…what she deserves…
