New York Times bestselling author Sherryl Woods takes the O'Briens to Ireland for a family Christmas they'll never forget!

Dating Matthew O'Brien--a playboy and a younger man--cost Laila Riley her career and her parents' respect. A high price, even for love--and when Laila decides it was just a fling, she breaks it off, despite Matthew's objections.

But the O'Brien family has other ideas, and they conspire to get Laila to join them on a Dublin holiday. It's a great time to get away from it all, but Laila has reservations about the trip. Matthew's bound to be there, and she's far from immune. What if she can't resist temptation?

Meanwhile, the O'Briens are in an uproar over matriarch Nell's unexpected romance with an old flame. Will she follow her heart, despite the risks? And will Laila discover that some risks are actually once-in-a-lifetime opportunities?
