Celena, a Christmas angel, has been given the devil of an assignment — to teach Lon Townsend how to love again. But the man is bad to the bone, a playboy to the nth degree, with no desire to change his wicked ways. Not to mention he makes her incorporeal body burn with desire, which is wrong on so many levels.

The redheaded beauty in Lon's bed is surely the present his friends promised. When she explains she's been sent down from Heaven to find him a mate, he knows she must be a fantastic actress or certifiably insane, but she's the sexiest little nut he's ever seen. He can't keep his mind or hands off her.
