Author: Shayne Ford
Genre(s): Romance | New Adult | MC
Total pages: 218
A sassy teacher meets a broody secret mobster.
What could go wrong?
He swore off women like her, and she just got out of a marriage. Sparks fly, the chemistry is off the charts, and what begins as casual banter turns out to be a riddle.
What if a single night is not enough?
Is it better to proceed with caution than do something they might regret in the long run?
SCARLETT
The whole point of the festive event is to have the first graders meet Santa, get their gifts, and take pictures with him.
So when the man I’ve hired to play Santa gets picked up by the police––don’t ask––I have no choice but to go with one of my favorite first graders’ suggestion and invite his nineteen year old cousin to replace him.
With no time to vet the guy, we hope for the best and are all happy when the man in question walks into the room decked out in a red costume.
Unfortunately, there is a glaring problem.
The tall, broad-shouldered man rocking the red costume like it’s nobody’s business has the hard body of a grown-up, the burning eyes of a man who has seen too much in this life, and the intricate tattoos of an inmate.
For sure, he is not the nineteen year old we have expected.
Despite the awkward moments, we make do, trying to ignore his grumpiness that could easily ruin our party.
All goes well, and the event is about to wind down when the kids insist I should take a picture with Santa.
Livid, I argue against the idea in vain before I sit on his lap, and have a life-altering experience.
But things are more complicated than this, and what begins as an all-consuming attraction becomes a dark pit in which I’m about to lose my soul.
EWAN
I swore off women like Scarlett after a tragic event in the past.
Am I in for some fun? Always.
Although nothing seems to tickle my fancy these days.
Playing Santa has never been on my list of fun things to do. And being surrounded by a bunch of kids?
Please, tap up someone else to save the day.
Yet when duty calls, I have no choice but to slip into the red costume, hating every second of it.
The last place I want to be right now is a Christmas party for little kids.
Little do I know that the kids come with a bossy stunning teacher who knows how to rock a pencil skirt and handle grown-up men like me as much as she knows how to make her pupils adore her.
She and I are a no go for a million reasons.
The most important one? I don’t want that life again.
And she deserves a better man than me.
Someone who is whole, undamaged, and capable of worshipping her.
But universe has different plans for us and before long we find ourselves tied to each other with a difficult road ahead.
