The Waitress (The Christmas Playlist, #3)

Loosely inspired by the delightfully cynical 1981 Christmas hit 'Christmas Wrapping' by The Waitresses.

Eve is too busy for Christmas. As a waitress working at a local restaurant, she barely has the time to sit down, never mind enjoy the festivities.

Peter has the world's worst work–life balance. Working in the financial sector and spending most of his time at the Dubai office, he's rarely in the country for more than a few months a year.

When they meet one fateful Christmas Eve, neither of them expect to feel an instant attraction. A phone number scrawled at the bottom of a receipt paves the way for an entire year of failed attempts to get together.

Will Peter and Eve be able to wrangle their schedules and their bad luck under control to finally bring Christmas to a very happy ending?
