When dedicated receptionist and volunteer Sage Taylor is looking for help with the Christmas holiday toy drive, she seeks the assistance of the local fire hall. She isn't expecting to be saddled with the entirely too attractive, Brad Putnam. He may be cute, but his Christmas spirit is lacking. She'll have to make do. After all, kids love firemen, even taciturn ones. Watching Brad's attitude soften might just steal her heart. Fire fighter Brad Putnam isn't one for helping out. He'd rather stay in the fire hall, out of the public's eye, and hold down the fort. When his boss assigns him to a charity drive, he's annoyed. Much to his surprise, Sage Taylor is lovely, and her generous heart draws him in almost as much as the grateful smiles of their gift recipients. He finds he'll do anything to make Sage happy. He may even give up his Grinch persona. Christmas, it seems, is a time of giving, and if Brad and Sage aren't careful, they might just give each other their hearts.
