The book features two little girls, a dog, and a donkey, plus Santa Claus and his "talking reindeer." Mikea lived in the desolate North Land. She had no friends, so she wrote a letter to Santa Claus, asking Santa, instead of toys, to bring her a little girl to play with for one evening. Sydney Hayes had befriended Santa the previous year when he fell off the Hayess roof. Mrs. Claus thought that Sydney would be the perfect friend for Mikea. Santa and the reindeer decided to bring Sydney to meet Mikea. Santa picked Sydney up, and they started for the North Land. Sitting beside Santa in his sleigh while they drifted through the starlit sky was a "magical journey," and a visit by the Christmas Angel added to Sydney's excitement. Although Mikea's parents were in a state of shock upon seeing Santa and the reindeer, the two girls bonded immediately, and they spent the evening visiting like they had known each other forever. Out in the barnyard, Mikea's dog and donkey visited with the reindeer. When Santa announced that it was time to return Sydney to her house, the girls hugged and vowed to be "friends for life."

I have one Christmas wish: to get Sam Porter, my brother's best friend and the man I've loved from a distance for most of my life - to notice me. To really notice me. So, I'm doing that super cheesy thing where I get all dressed up at the Kane Co. Holiday party in the hopes he'll see what he's been missing. And for the span of a blackout every one of my sex dreams about Sam come true. But then the lights come back on and he pushes me away with both hands. So now I'm done with him. Done with his handsome face, and his not-so-hidden pain and all our inside jokes. And my love for him - I'm really done with that. But Sam has been discharged from the Marines, and my brother has hired him on at Kane Co. In the shipping department. Where I'm the boss. And he's...irresistible. But Sam has his own Christmas wish and it's me he's wanted all along.
