But they didn't....

HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Lauren West: Imagine, Nicke Gatewood, the sexy town bad boy, gallantly rescuing me from an obnoxious mule pursuer. But did he have to say we were engaged?!

Nick Gatewood: It was nothing, really. Especially because I need one night of Lauren's time, as my fiancee, to convince the boss's wife that this bachelor isn't the proverbial Thanksgiving turkey.

A simple agreement: But Lauren never expected her family and friends to get word of her nonintended nuptials. Or to find herself falling in love with her make-believe bridegroom and planning a very real wedding.

Join Linda Varner as she celebrates the joy and love of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's with three very special couples.
