Allen just wanted to be left alone this Christmas, but when his charming best friend ropes him into playing decoy at a hotel job, things spiral fast. He’s awkward, introverted, and totally unprepared for Mia—the girl he’s supposed to distract—who turns out to be kind, curious, and way too observant. As secrets unravel and fake roles turn real, Allen must decide if playing it safe is worth missing out on the best thing he never saw coming.
A quirky, slow-burn holiday romance where the decoy falls for the target—and love rewrites the plan.
