Working retail during the holidays tests Derek's supply of cheer, but the handsome new guy at the mall's Santa's Workshop certainly takes his mind off dreary jerks. So far, Derek has admired him from a distance, but he plans on introducing himself-if he can ever find the courage. Flynn is a Winter fairy, out in the human world for his first extended trip. He's ready to learn all about mortals and their funny ways. Toward the top of his list is discovering the name of the cute guy working in the toy store. When Derek offers Flynn a bundle of homemade cookies, Flynn follows fey custom and reciprocates with a gift of his own. Tiny gifts lead to dates, and dates lead toward more. But Flynn is tied to the winter season and will lose his magic if he stays. Is their love enough, or will their relationship leave their hearts in crumbles?
