A Secret Santa gift exchange sends Molly's festive spirit array when she starts to question the sincerity of her boyfriend, Juan Manuel. As she delves deeper into the mystery, she discovers a web of secrets and lies that threatens to shatter her trust and belief in the magic of the season. A romantic mystery which is just that tad too obvious and vacuous to have the same impact as the previous novel.  This novella feels tired and lacks a ratio d'etre.
