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.

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, themore 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"--
