Let it Snow

This is a novella for Christmas. Christmas can be joyful or lonely, depending on what you make it!
Lori Lanningham flew from New York to Plano, Texas, all to put a doldrum boyfriend and job behind her and be with her family, Aunt Judy.
Handyman Mark Sutton had been sweet on Heather Lewis for years, but she hardly knew he was alive.
Aunt Judy lands Lori in a spot when she suggests he date Lori to make his lady friend jealous. Mark agrees to it befor Lori has a chance to stop it.
Just coming from a relationship that lacked luster and gusto, Lori isn't sure it's wise to dive into something else. After all Mark is a hunk, what if she falls for him and he pines for Heather?
Sure enough, when she sees stars when he kisses her, Mark is looking at Heather. Lori's suddenly in too deep. She'd rather go back to her no relationship, than be hurt, especially at Christmas.
