For reluctant psychic Riley Thorn, the holidays are less \"magic in the air\" and more \"fire in the living room.\" Between the backlog of invoices, a PI license teetering on revocation, a disapproving grandmother lobbing ominous predictions about the upcoming wedding, and the fact that Riley cannot see a single thing about her own future with Nick Santiago, she just wants to survive until December 26th.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNick Santiago doesn't do \"mellow.\" He does Christmas.
