At Christmas, a man with a name like Ebenezer Grinchly isn't likely to find any holiday cheer… much less love. Right? Eb's ex-wife just left her excess baggage on his doorstep, and he's found out he has a daughter—and he couldn't be more thrilled. Not about his ex-wife lying to him four years ago about the child being his, but about the gift of a second chance at fatherhood. Unfortunately, he knows absolutely nothing about little girls. But the woman he's wanted to date for months sweeps in to help. A lot of people think Eb is a grump like his name implies, but his friend Sandra Faragher knows better. He's a good guy, only a little rigid and stuck in a rut. It's her goal to help him out of it. She doesn't expect to fall for the hot, nerdy dad he suddenly turns into, and his sweet interactions with his surprise daughter only make him more attractive. Sandra can almost believe her dream could come true. But Sandra has a secret even her famous boss doesn't know about. For her to get her dream, Eb will have to sacrifice his.
