When Mazie Tarleton was a starry-eyed 16-year-old, J.B. (Jackson Beauregard) Vaughan crushed her heart and stomped on her fragile ego—and she's hated him ever since. Now a wealthy businessman, J.B. wants to buy Mazie's elegant, high-end jewelry store in the historic district of Charleston, SC, as part of his redevelopment plan, and she's intent to make him work for it. Then they accidentally get trapped in an old bank vault while J.B. is showing her an alternate site for her store. Mazie tries to distract J.B. with a kiss from having a claustrophobic meltdown, and the atmosphere shifts to steamy. Neither Mazie nor J.B. can deny the pull, but they know it would never work—until a family crisis and an impulsive decision take things in a different direction. VERDICT Two stubborn people finally come to terms with their pasts and learn to trust each other in a heart-tugging romance that sparkles with holiday spirit. Maynard (Million Dollar Baby) lives in eastern Tennessee.
