Friends don’t let friends fake date alone. Oscar Wilde once said, “Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.” Ha! Wrong. Dead wrong. And I can totally prove it. For the last seven years, I’ve been just friends with Jack Holiday—yes, that Jack Holiday. The swoon-worthy, ridiculously famous, self-proclaimed king of the silver screen. Passion? Love? Worship? Please. Unless you count how much Jack worships himself. Take that, Oscar!

In a heartwarming novel of secret wishes and family lost and found, acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Fern Michaels creates a timeless Christmas story to cherish.

Detectives Patrick Holling and Julian Ives work to solve the cases assigned to New Jersey PD’s Holiday Crimes Unit. Known to their coworkers as Holly and Ivy, this unlikely duo find themselves grappling with a series of more and more difficult cases, as they struggle to make their partnership a success even as they slog through dirty snow, spend time in the morgue, grapple with the mob, and attempt to outsmart the feds. Now, their first three Christmas cases have been brought together in one convenient package.

When a snowstorm hits days before Christmas and I'm the only one at the house, I'm quickly informed that I'll be spending Christmas alone, with only my dog for company. That's before things take a turn for the worse. I never would have come if I'd known they'd be here. Fletcher and Boone, my stepbrothers, were never the family I'd hoped for. They're the reason I ran away, the ghosts that haunt my sleep. I was promised they'd be too busy to come to the cabin this year, but someone broke that promise.

This is a story about the things you think you'll never lose in life, the things you do lose and the things that get left behind, either accidentally or on purpose. But it's also a story about the things you think you'll never find in life, the things you do find and the things that get left behind by others that you pick up and make into yours. Jack had a family until the day when he didn't, and then what Jack had was a street. Jack lost one family but gained many more. Christmas is a very special time. Jack is a very special dog.

Morgan Ashley finally has a chance to prove herself. She's survived multiple elimination rounds, and she's one of five finalists ready to strut her cake-baking stuff at the Holly Wood Resort and Spa as part of the Cake-Off Competition. Stranded midway to the resort, she's rescued by a handsome stranger/resort ski instructor. Inside their personal "snow globe", he helps her rediscover her joy of the holidays along with a bit of the self-confidence she'd lost during her marriage.

When most people contemplate Christmas, they think of family time, baking gingerbread with Grandma, and stringing those forever-tangled lights on the tree. For Lieutenant Patrick Holling, Christmas means something entirely different, though. Demoted and transferred to New Jersey PD's own version of Timbuktu - the Holiday Crimes Unit, where every crime that correlates to a holiday is sent to die, Holling finds himself saddled with an unwanted partner, Detective Julian Ives, who has transferred to the HCU under mysterious circumstances.
