Kelsey struggles with a severe anxiety disorder. Afraid to interact with people, she has instead dedicated herself to her rescued basset hound, Beauregard. One of his daily walks leads to a chance encounter with a young man named Chase, and though Kelsey tries to deny it, the attraction is instant. However, tragedy strikes just weeks before Christmas, leaving Kelsey alone with her grief-or is she? Chase understands her better than she realizes, and he's determined to show her how the season of giving can heal a broken heart.
