But Tala Nelson might be exactly that. She's the softest thing he's ever seen, and she makes his heart, scarred by a lifetime of hardship, beat just a little faster.

Tired of being alone for the holidays, tomboy Jessie Granger decides to make her debut at the annual Christmas masquerade ball. In a gorgeous dress and mask, she meets a handsome masked stranger, and they spend one passionate night together. And just like Cinderella, she even leaves a shoe behind. Neither expect to see one another again…until Jessie realizes it wasn’t a stranger at all but her brother’s best friend and her unrequited crush, Damien Prince. Jessie knows Damien isn’t looking for anything serious, especially something that would put his relationship with her family in jeopardy, but her youthful crush is feeling more and more like something real. As the sparks between them continue to grow stronger, can they survive falling in love with the one person they were never supposed to touch, or will the other shoe drop this holiday season?
