**Two years ago, she stood him up on New Year’s Eve. He never got over it.**

Matteo McKenzie could have any woman in Manhattan.

He’s gorgeous, filthy rich, and New York’s most sought-after DJ—the kind of man Avery Clark swore she’d never fall for.

Too charming.
Too tempting.
Too much like trouble.

So when Matteo gave her his black card and asked her to spend New Year’s Eve with him…

**Avery never showed.**

Now, two Christmases later, she walks into a blind date and finds the one man she hoped she’d never have to face again sitting across the table.

His verdict?

**One star. Would not recommend.**

Except Matteo isn’t looking for revenge.

He’s looking at Avery like she’s still the only woman in New York.

And this time, the man who falls first has no intention of letting the girl who got away disappear twice.

**A swoony, steamy Christmas romance filled with Manhattan lights, wicked banter, handmade pasta, a meddling Rockette grandma, and one devastatingly devoted bad-boy DJ.**

**He could have anyone. He’s been waiting for her.**
