Christmas Eve love story / Ginny Baird.

"New York City window dresser, Annie Jones, focuses on her job but doesn't really know her colleagues or any of her neighbors in her six-unit Brooklyn walk-up. When her Christmas window display gets upended by some kids on Christmas Eve, she has to start over, not knowing that she's also destined to repeat that day. The store Santa gives her a decorating tip and the friendly store security guard, Braden Tate, offers to help her, warming her heart. As a series of Christmas Eves repeats itself, Annie slowly gets what's been missing from her life-friends, community, family-with opportunities to do better. Lawson's Finest department store security guard, Braden Tate, admires Annie Jones and her work. Her lush window displays remind him of simpler times, when he was a kid and his family used to stroll down Fifth Avenue during the holidays. Army veteran Braden's reluctant to become involved with a coworker, but there's something so special about Annie, who's giving and kind. The more he gets to know her, the more he appreciates her generous spirit in reaching out to others. Though they've never talked much before today, Braden can't help but feel that he's somehow known Annie forever-and that this Christmas just might change his life"--
