The most un-festive person you'll ever meet has had a rough history with Christmas. Ever since the year she uncovered the truth about Santa, every misfortune in her life seems to have happened around the holidays. It's no wonder she avoids anything remotely festive. So, naturally, losing a bet means she’s off to Lapland for a seasonal job—welcoming tourists to Santa's winter wonderland for the holidays. Ten weeks of icy temperatures, long, dark days, and a requirement to stay perpetually cheerful about Christmas isn't exactly her dream. But as she adjusts to life in the arctic circle, she begins to see that Lapland offers more than just tinsel and carols. And then there’s him—an Elf, or at least someone who plays one, fully committed to his role. The last person she thought she'd be drawn to. Could a bit of magic under the Northern Lights be enough to change her luck—and her view of Christmas—forever?
