Twelve Kisses Until Christmas — Jennifer Lohmann

Selina Lumina wants nothing more than to escape her small hometown in Idaho and her abusive stepfather, and fulfill her dream of working in the art world. But things like that require money, and that's something she just doesn't have. But when a handsome stranger sits down in her section at the local diner, he might be just what she needs. Software developer Marc Murcowski recently made millions selling an innovative app and, bored and lonely now that he seemingly has no purpose in his life, makes her an offer she can't refuse. As they travel together across the country and their desire for each other grows, Selina must decide if she's willing to throw away the life she's always dreamed of for a chance at happiness with Marc.
