His unexpected kiss has me wanting to be on Santa’s naughty list—maybe forever.
Timing is everything.
A few months ago, I thought he was into me. Then nothing but friendly smiles and nods. I miss the sultry gazes and swoon worthy smiles that left me hot and bothered.
Now, a week before Christmas, I’m mingling with friends at our favorite pub when my phone jingles, “All I want for Christmas,” filling the air as I scramble to answer. Santa has bailed. Slade swoops in offering to be my, I mean, the party’s Santa.
Needing a Santa for the party I’d been planning for months was one thing. My need for Slade Johansson, one of Pineville’s most eligible and mysterious bachelors, was another.
Months of wondering turn into moments, then days of togetherness--planning the Christmas Eve party for the Children’s Club where I work. Instead of sugarplums dancing in my head, my dreams turn naughty, with images of Santa offering me his special “package” of joy and giving.
Is this just a holiday hook-up or can we find a way to make the magic of the season last forever?
