Guilt-ridden, Eden Carnegie is determined to cheer up the self-proclaimed Scrooge during his recovery. Soon, they're organizing a Christmas party together, and Rio's heart begins to soften toward Eden and his new life. But with his dangerous job a secret between them, can Eden's love of the season convince Rio to stay past the holiday?
