For Em Davis, planner extraordinaire, life should run as smoothly as her economic forecasts. She’s got a checklist for the perfect boyfriend, and now she’s met Thomas, who ticks off all the boxes. The only problem is her parents keep rejecting her new men. But she has a solution: she’ll bring home someone so offensive that Thomas will shine in comparison.
Ian Reid is the perfect man for this role. He’s a foul-mouthed jerk who insults her each time they meet. How hard could it be to spend a few days over Christmas with a sexist lunkhead to teach her picky parents to quit interfering with her love life?
The only thing that Em hasn’t calculated is that there’s a whole other side to this sexy ex-pro hockey player. And a lot can happen in three days.
