A Texas resort is famous for its December nuptials. No couple that’s ever gotten married at the Briscoe Ranch has divorced—a phenomenon that the wedding industry has dubbed the Mistletoe Effect. But when the resort owner’s own daughter leaves her wayward fiancé at the altar, the Briscoe Ranch faces a publicity nightmare. So the sister of the bride steps in to exchange vows with one of the ranch’s loyal employees instead.

Their marriage might be a sham but the sparks between them are anything but. Sometimes a little bit of Christmas magic is all it takes for two hearts to end up in the right place at the right time…Could it be that this unlikely couple ends up with the greatest gift of all?
